FritzZyme TurboStart 700 Freshwater Live Nitrifying Bacteria
FritzZyme TurboStart 700 Freshwater is the industry-leading, original live nitrifying bacteria solution designed to rapidly cycle new aquatic systems and eliminate toxic spikes. Containing the exact freshwater-specific strains of Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter, this professional-grade formula boasts 15 times the concentration of standard bacteria treatments. While establishing a natural biofilter from scratch can take weeks, TurboStart introduces millions of active, live bacteria that get straight to work, safely cycling your system in 5 days or less. This rapid establishment eliminates "New Tank Syndrome," prevents fish loss, and allows for the safe and immediate introduction of livestock. It is the ultimate insurance policy for new aquariums, quarantine systems, or established biofilters needing immediate fortification after aggressive cleaning or medication.
Key benefits:
15x Concentrated Strength: Delivers a massive dose of true live nitrifying bacteria, completely cycling aquariums up to 15 times faster than standard treatments.
Immediate Livestock Addition: Rapidly converts toxic ammonia and nitrite into harmless nitrate, allowing you to add fish safely on day one.
Prevents New Tank Syndrome: Eliminates dangerous chemical spikes that cause fish loss and respiratory distress during initial tank setups.
Fortifies Established Biofilters: Perfect for restoring lost bacterial colonies after deep cleanings, filter media replacements, or heavy medicating cycles.
Specifications:
Form: Concentrated live liquid bacteria
Bacterial Strains: Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter (Freshwater Specific)
Water Type: Freshwater Aquariums Only
Storage Requirements: Must be kept refrigerated (34°F – 50°F); do not freeze.
Available Variants:
1 oz. Bottle: Compact size ideal for nano tanks, hospital tanks, and small setups; treats up to 50 gallons.
4 oz. Bottle: The perfect choice for standard medium-sized home aquariums; treats up to 200 gallons.
Suggested use:
Preparation: Ensure all chlorine and chloramines are fully removed from the water using a conditioner prior to adding bacteria. Turn off UV sterilizers and protein skimmers before use and leave them off for 5 days post-introduction.
Dosing: Shake the bottle vigorously. Add 1 oz (29 ml) of TurboStart 700 per 50 gallons of aquarium water.
Note: To accelerate heavy workloads or severe spikes, TurboStart can be safely dosed at up to 5x the recommended strength. Tank water may temporarily cloud or take on an earthy smell for a few hours after use.
Storage and safety:
Keep the bottle refrigerated until ready to use. Use before the printed expiration date on the bottom of the packaging.
Warnings:
Do not freeze the product, as sub-freezing temperatures will destroy the live bacterial colonies.
Keep out of reach of children.
What’s included:
1 x FritzZyme TurboStart 700 Freshwater Live Bacteria (Selected Size)

Used globally by public aquariums, fish farms, and advanced hobbyists, it provides unmatched speed and biological safety to protect your livestock from the very first day.
