PNS ProBio is a live Purple Non-Sulfur bacteria supplement that offers a host of benefits to both saltwater and freshwater aquarium systems alike. In addition to its ability to naturally remove ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphate via assimilation and denitrification; ProBio is also able to break down organic waste and detritus to keep your system running efficiently. The strain of PNS contained in ProBio(Rhodopseudomonas palustris)has been known to compete aggressively with pathogens such asVibrio and can even outcompete algae and cyanobacteria for vital resources, so dose it regularly to keep your aquarium in balance.
In addition to its powerful biofiltration capabilities, ProBio can also serve as a nutritious addition to your livestock's diet. It is rich in protein, carotenoids, and vitamins and selectively consumed by corals, where it can often carry out symbiotic interactions with zooxanthellae. For herbivorous fish, you can use ProBio as a prebiotic and use it to soak food to help break down cellulose and ease digestion.
ProBio has been designed to be used regularly as part of a routine feeding and maintenance regimen. It is also great for reestablishing beneficial bacterial colonies after medications or to address "old tank syndrome". Each sealed bottle has a shelf life of 8 months and can tolerate temperature swings from 33°F to 130°F.

Ingredients
Organic growth medium and live purple non-sulfur bacteria(Rhodopseudomonas palustris)
I use this stuff periodically to keep the good bacteria up in my 150 gallon. Has a strong odor of eggs or sulfate so make sure you plan accordingly for a few hours when using.
I cannot say for sure whether Dino Busters cured the LCA outbreak, as I also added Pods, live rock and dosed a few different bacteria strains. That being said, within a week of dosing silica and adding the Dino Buster , the dinos started to recede and cleared completely within two weeks.
I had the opportunity to beta test the 3" Copepod Sieves, and I’m loving them! 🤩 Mix and match colors while saving 7% when you buy three or more—and no code needed- provides just a straightforward shopping experience.
These must-have tools streamline my harvesting process and ensure a clean yield every time!
This culture has been really fun! Dosing silicate water was very interesting, the precipitation was intense, I’d never used it before. Thalassiosira weissfloggii is really easy to grow and most importantly, my pods and brine LOVE IT. My pods get extremely active when I feed, it’s really cool seeing copepods get excited. I tried growing t-iso and had a contamination issue on my end, so wanted a less finicky species that still has all the good fats and this seems to fit my needs perfectly! I’ve already split my culture once and it’s bubbling along happily turning a nice golden brown.

Amazing experience!!!
Skyler went above and beyond with my purchases as usual! He answered all of my questions and the phyto, pods and rotifers were some of the best I've ever received! Can't recommend Reef Legends enough and they have a customer for life! Hoping they don't add anymore strands as I wouldn't be able to not buy them!

Excellent Customer Service!
After purchasing a beautiful Mandarin Dragonet, I was in search of a sustainable way of keeping him well-fed. Reaching out thru chat, I got a timely response from Skyler, who got me set up with a kit that has everything I needed to start culturing two different kinds of pods. When I received the order, my Tigriopus pods were mostly DOA. I informed Skyler right away, and he sent me replacements at no cost, which arrived, healthy, soon after. Skyler responds to my many questions via chat in a timely manner, and is always courteous and helpful. Just harvested my first batch of pods! Super cool! Great products and awesome customer service!
