Give Your Aquarium’s Good Bacteria a Boost
Support a healthy, stable aquarium with Little Lotl’s Axolotl Bacta-Boost.
This highly concentrated liquid supplement introduces beneficial bacteria and natural enzymes that help break down organic waste and support biological filtration.
Bacta-Boost assists the aquarium nitrogen cycle by helping convert harmful ammonia and nitrite into nitrate, which can then be managed through regular water changes and healthy aquarium plants.
Think of it as reinforcements for the tiny maintenance crew living inside your filter.

New aquarium setups
Fishless aquarium cycling
Routine aquarium maintenance
Water changes
After filter maintenance
Supporting established biological filters
Aquarium upgrades or filter changes

Bacta-Boost supports the cycling process but does not instantly cycle an aquarium. Regular water testing is still essential.
Directions for Use
Initial Treatment
Add 5ml per 25 litres of well-aerated aquarium water.
Ongoing Maintenance
Add 5ml per 50 litres every 7–14 days or after each water change.
For best results, provide good aeration and use regularly as part of your aquarium maintenance routine.
Coverage Guide
One litre treats up to 10,000 litres of aquarium water when used at the ongoing maintenance dose.
Always choose the correct bottle size for your aquarium volume and follow the recommended directions.
Is Bacta-Boost Suitable for Axolotls?
Yes. Bacta-Boost is suitable for axolotl aquariums when used as directed.
It supports the beneficial bacteria responsible for processing aquarium waste, but it does not replace:
A properly sized aquarium filter
Regular water testing
Dechlorinated water
Routine water changes
Removal of uneaten food and waste
Correct aquarium cycling
Before introducing an axolotl, the aquarium should consistently test at:
Ammonia: 0ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: within a safe and manageable range
Never assume an aquarium is cycled simply because bottled bacteria have been added. The test kit gets the final vote.
Perfect For
New and established axolotl aquariums

Freshwater fish tanks
Saltwater aquariums
Planted tanks
Filter maintenance
Routine water changes
