Does Dr. Tim's Waste-Away work?

I bought this at RAP:

Has anyone used this? What do you think?

It will not wash windows or perform miracles.

What is it that you expect from it?

It's supposed to get rid of gunk in the tank, keep it cleaner and reduce nitrates and phosphates a little. The Dr. Tim's guy swore by it, but, well, he works at Dr. Tim's.

I used it when I had cyano and it worked great. It does help some but I don't feel I need to use it with a good water change routine. But it doesn't hurt either.

It's a bacteria additive so it should help with lowering nitrates but it's only bacteria so it's not going to do anything out of the ordinary or special.
