FritzZyme® TurboClean is a powerful probiotic blend of naturally-occurring heterotrophic bacteria specifically chosen for their ability to quickly digest organic sludge common in aquariums. Sludge includes fish waste, leftover food and other decaying organic matter. When left unchecked, sludge can lead to unsightly algae growth and other water quality issues. The bacteria in FritzZyme TurboClean is safe, non-toxic and non-pathogenic.
Regular use helps minimize substrate cleaning and water changes while extending filter media life. Natural bacteria quickly break down waste, eliminate odors, and clarify the water—keeping your aquarium clean, clear, and balanced.
FritzZyme TurboClean contains a highly-concentrated blend of bacteria. More colony-forming units (CFUs) per dose means more waste-reducing power.
Used along with FritZyme Nitrifying Bacteria, TurboClean is a simple, natural approach to water treatment.

Variations of odor and color between bottles is normal. Lack of odor or a strong odor does not mean the bacteria are dead.
