where to get prodibio?

I was under the impression they were completely different systems.... anyone know whether this is true? the zeo system requires zeolites and a reactor as does the fauna marin system but there is no mention of a substrate or reactor required with prodibio....

The reactor is a PLUS, not a drawback FYI.

Substrateless probiotic systems are far less effective at providing bacterial plankton suspensions for coral feeding.

ok, I'll take your word on that. but I'd still like to know where I can buy prodibio...

Premium Aquatics, I believe.

both of those places are in the US. doesn't anyone locally sell this stuff?

Not as far as I'm aware.

Is there a reason, in particular, that you want to try Prodibio over the Fauna Marin/Zeovit products?

When i got those ampoules from AO they were probidio bacterial culture.
I think these product lines are very close and can be mixed.
jmo
I was using FaunaMarine (including probidio) and now use Zeo (just because J&L has it and it's closer to my home)
Mix and match FM leftovers with ZEO, all life stock is happy.
Its all the same principal: Bacterial culture , bacterial food , coral food , amino acids etc. I have dosing calculator for faunamarine if anybody interested.
