Microbacter 7 questions

[Bpb]

Haven’t found the answer I’m looking for. Picked up a bottle of MB7 and the dosage instructions are pretty wordy but fairly vague.

The stable low nutrient instructions are

“One capful per 50 gallons not to exceed once per week....
Alternatively, one drop per 50 gallons per day
Or, one drop per 25 gallons every other day”

Does that mean pick which one of those 3 methods you like most? The amount you’re dosing seems to vary widely.

Two capfuls per week is a lot more than 14 drops for the week?

Or does it mean dose your full caps once a week AND add it by the drop every day? Just not real clear to me

You are just adding bacteria. There’s no magic number that is best to add. I doubt you’ll notice any difference between the two possible doses.

It’s saying to pick only one of the methods of the three.

They are probably referring too establishing a bacteria population with one cap per 50 gallons vs maintaining bacteria population with the drops. Keep in mind I say that without reading the directions. As Randy stated already, your going to be fine either way. I would just dose a cap full after a water change. Milky water lets you know when your over the limit.
