Environmental Applications

"Just thought I'd tell you
what a wonderful product you have. I purchased the pebbles for a twenty gallon tank,
within 3 weeks I could see the water clearing nicely and the
fish seem to be perking up and water tests are all leveling off nicely and thats only 4 weeks. Very impressive...maybe when sales start to go through the roof you could lower the prices a little.....fixed income hobbiest"

Clarify Cloudy Aquarium Water and Reduce Water Changes 
with EcoBio-Block Family Products.
EcoBio-Block's unique formula contains beneficial bacteria that keep water clear and odor-free, and create a healthy environment for fish for years.
Starting a new tank and clarifying cloudy aquarium water is easy with EcoBio-Block (EBB) Family Products. (EcoBio-Block, EcoBio-Rock, EcoBio-Pebbles, and EcoBio-Stones). They are made of a paste mixture containing mineral-rich, porous volcanic stones, special cement, nutrients, and beneficial bacteria (bacillus subtilis natto - the same type of bacteria found in the Japanese delicacy "natto") sealed in a live and propagable state.

When EBB bacteria come in contact with water, they immediately propagate, releasing millions of EBB bacteria that multiply every half hour. The beneficial bacteria then degrade organic matter, this deodorizes and clarifies cloudy aquarium water. EcoBio-Block is unique because the bacteria live in the block, making it unnecessary to add new bacteria for about 2 years. Because the bacteria propagate quickly, EcoBio-Blocks shorten or eliminate "new tank syndrome".

EcoBio-Block Family Products helps to rapidly oxidize dangerous ammonia first into nitrite and then into safer nitrates. Nitrates are naturally eliminated by plant absorption, as well as by microbes living in gravel which convert nitrates into nitrogen gas which then evaporates from the tank.

EcoBio-Block's volcanic stones leach necessary calcium and trace minerals into the water to create a healthy environment for aquatic life.

With EcoBio-Block Family, fish can live in clear, healthy water for years.

EcoBio-Block contains beneficial bacteria which
propagate every 30 minutes, naturally clarifying
and deodorizing cloudy aquarium water.
EcoBio-Block's Nitrification Process
Beneficial bacteria in EcoBio-Block multiply and disperse into surrounding waters. The beneficial bacteria effectively decomposes organic matter and maintain the nitrogen cycle for years, clarifying cloudy aquarium water.

 Water Quality Test

Water quality was tested in two identical aquariums, one with and one without EcoBio-Rock. Both contained 20 freshwater fish. Aquarium with EcoBio-Rock showed significant water quality improvement. Picture was taken after 134 days.

Fish Species: Longear Sunfish, Orange-spotted sunfish and Pumpkin Seed - 12 fish in 20 gal. tank, ranging in size from 4" to 7". We started the tank with three plants, but the fish gradually nibbled them away, so we took the stumps out. We put background paper behind the glass for aesthetics. In June, we decided to add back a few plants for aesthetics (and for nibbling!)


 Our In-House Test

Every month, since November 27th, 2006, a photo is being taken of our home aquarium. As you can see, the aquarium water remains clear and fish are healthy.
