I did not detect Nitrobacter in either situation, but I did detect Nitrospira-like bacteria in both cases. Thus, even when adding Nitrobacter to the system, these bacteria fail to become established. The only possible benefit to adding the additive was that a greater percentage of the total bacteria DNA in the samples was from the Nitrospira-like bacteria in the tanks that received the additive.


While there are more tests to be performed, it seems that the additive did have a kind of "fertilization" effect. What I surmise is that there are nutrients in the additive that the Nitrospira-like bacteria can use to increase their numbers faster than in tanks without the additive. Whether this is a significant increase or not I cannot answer at this time. In addition, the nitrite concentration in the additive tanks still rose to toxic levels, indicating that the additive did nothing to "shorten" the break in period for the tank."
