Still not seeing much benefit from this plan I am on. I do have water changes and 2nd round of Bioptim to be dosed as well.

Mike- being new- I forgot to drop down to a maintanace dose...I was dosing 1/2 cap for a 10 gallon tank. I have dropped since then, and has quickly subsided.
Think I am getting the hang of this dosing now. tanks been up for 2 months, and hasnt had a water change. Been trying to get the dosing right first. I have 0 nitrates.
Double checked it at the LFS today, just in case. They tested twice- because it read 0 nitrates, and they arent used to seeing that!
Im not noticing any benefit from the Prodibio still. HA has increased with some other types I haven't IDed yet and I have a horrible cyno outbreak in the sand. I've got one more dose tonight for the DT and then Im out. Don't think Im gonna re order any new stuff.

^ dont want to try the brightwell aproach?
I wouldnt quit just yet- unless you are just feeling like being done. This takes a good long time to get to possitive results.
I forgot to mention, the tank for 2 months was moved over from a tank, being dosed for 2 months also- so really I am lookin at dosing for 4 months. I just havnt done a water change on the new set up (2 months) since it was set up.
From what I have read/seen, probiotics takes a good 3 or 4 months to get possitive results. Sometimes longer.
I don't want to have to dose anything else daily other than my alk and calc.
So far I've only seen negative effects. I might throw a few more bucks at another package but no LFS around here sells it and Im not paying shipping for a $10 item. So I don't know, probably sleep on it and see.
