FritzZyme Trace

FritzZyme Trace supplies the trace elements, minerals, and electrolytes that nitrifying bacteria need to thrive in a freshwater aquarium. Calcium, iron, magnesium, sodium, manganese, and other micronutrients drive the nitrogen cycle, and when they run low, cycling can stall and ammonia and nitrite can climb. It is a great companion to live nitrifying bacteria, especially in RO/DI or soft tap water. Explore more additives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it do?
It replenishes the trace minerals and electrolytes nitrifying bacteria need, which keeps your cycle strong.

Do I need it with RO/DI water?
Yes, RO/DI water is stripped of minerals, so Trace is especially helpful there.

Is it just for new tanks?
It helps most during cycling but also supports the biofilter any time mineral levels run low.
