Our take on the Seachem Laboratories Stability Biological Water Conditioner

Seachem Stability is a bottled bacteria blend for starting and repairing the biofilter in freshwater and marine aquariums. It contains aerobic, anaerobic and facultative bacteria that break down waste organics, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate, and it is formulated not to produce hydrogen sulfide. It suits new tank setups, quarantine tanks and tanks recovering after medication or filter cleaning. Compared with single-strain starters, its mix of bacterial types and its stated safety for plants and invertebrates make it a flexible choice, though it does not replace testing and water changes.
