PolypLab Genesis Rock Booster

Overview
Genesis Rock Booster is a bacterial/biostimulant additive formulated to rapidly seed PolypLab Genesis Rocks (and other porous bio-media) with beneficial nitrifying and denitrifying microbes. It helps new and mature systems achieve stable biological filtration faster, reducing start-up lag and improving resilience after maintenance or media changes.

Key Features

• Fast colonization: Speeds up biofilm establishment on ceramic media.

• Balanced microbiome support: Aids both nitrification (ammonia → nitrite → nitrate) and long-term nitrate control.

• Versatile use: Ideal for new tanks, after heavy cleanings, or when adding/changing bio-media.

• Reef-safe: Suitable for reef and fish-only systems when used as directed.

How to Use

• Pre-seed method: Place rinsed Genesis Rocks in a bucket of tank water, add Genesis Rock Booster per label directions, and soak with aeration for several hours before installing in the sump/AIO chamber.

• In-tank boost: With pumps running (or return off briefly to localize), apply the dose in a high-flow area or directly over the media rack.

• After maintenance: Dose following large water changes, rock rinses, or when replacing media to help re-establish bacterial density.

• Important: Follow manufacturer dosing on the bottle; avoid overdosing. Maintain good oxygenation and normal filtration.

What’s Included

• (1) Genesis Rock Booster bottle (size varies by listing)

Compatibility

• Designed for PolypLab Genesis Rocks; also compatible with other porous ceramic media and live rock in marine or freshwater systems.

Tips

• Do not rinse treated media with chlorinated tap water—swish gently in tank water only.

• Stagger media changes to preserve existing bio-capacity.

• Monitor ammonia, nitrite, nitrate for 1–2 weeks after major media additions or cleanings.
