I must say I find the idea of packaged bacteria, instead of patient cycling, ludicrous.
First, I don’t like spending money when I don’t have to.
Second, I will always wisely doubt the effectiveness, at least quantitatively; that is will it actually handle my bioload?
Third, I will always have to test it out with a pulse of ammonia. I do so in every situation when there is doubt (when a pulse of ammonia has not been recently processed).
Cycling is just so basic and easy that there is no enhancement needed.
Cycling allows extremely high capacity to process ammonia if ever needed. I hate to accept any margin when unnecessary.
