Yes they work great. I would never be without them.
The black ones are the ones we use in the hatchery you get more for your money as they are very concentrated. As far as starting a tank they work ok but you still need to do larger water changes so your bio-load can catch up. The only product that I feel can take fish the first day you get them with a non-cycled tank is Fritz Turbo Start.......Josie
Well what I would do if that’s all I had to work with is get some bio from another tanks filter and use that as your media along with the bio-balls and you shouldn’t have a problem. But as far as starting from scratch IMO you will run into issues with your parameters’ they won’t be stable. As far as maintaining the tank they work great but starting one they need some sort of waste to get started.....Josie
Yes you can start a tank with them. Not the best way but you can do it. You should always have tank fully cycled before adding fish bit if you just can't wait it works. Stay on top of water changes and test water every day. Do not over feed and don't overstock. I'm assuming your talking about dropping fish in if not you need to feed ammonia
I put some in the tank and added 4 ppm of pure ammonia from ace hardware. How long till I can expect results?? It's been 9 hours so far and the ammonia hasn't gone down. What should i do!!??!
How many did you put in? How big is your tank?? Don't do anything for now until you post answers

Didn't someone report a few weeks ago it took 15 minutes for 4ppm of ammonia to be turned to nitrates with these balls LOL!
I ordered some and will do some experimenting
