I used Seachem Pristine after setting up a new tank. It helped stabilize ammonia levels and made the water clearer within a few weeks. Easy to dose and effective for supporting beneficial bacteria.

Good product for maintaining water quality. I added it weekly during cycling and noticed a steady drop in nitrite levels. Works best when combined with regular water changes.

After a fish loss, I used Pristine to restart the biological filter. It restored balance and kept the tank stable. The 2L size is sufficient for a 20-gallon tank.

It helped a bit, but I saw more noticeable results when paired with water testing and proper feeding habits. Not a magic fix, but useful for maintenance.
