Just never ends I do feed alot because of my pipes the tank is 60g . So figured I would give these products a go.

Pro Bio F is for seeding a new system
Pro Bio S is for daily dosing an established system.
NP Pro is the Carbon for feeding the bacteria.

What are your Nitrates and Phosphates reading now? Remember, bacteria need Nitrates, Phosphates and Carbon to grow. If your nitrates bottom out the bacteria won't consume Phosphates until there's more nitrates.
