Why is it suggested to use Microbacter7 to help fight Dinos which Microbacter7 is said to also lower nutrients which is what causes the Dinos in the first place? Everything I read says to raise nutrients to fight Dinos.

The theory:
You dose MB-7 for its good bacteria to out-compete the dino's for living space.

You're Correct:
If your nutrients are low then dose NeoPhos and NeoNitro to keep your phosphates and nitrates in check while dosing MB-7. Going to need some good NO3 and PO4 test kits.

Grab some AlgaeBarn's OceanMagik Live Phytoplankton too!!

Thank you. That makes sense.

So far I’ve been dosing Algae barn Phyto for a week, turned off skimmer and feeding more. My nitrate is undetectable and phosphate .04.
Going to try Microbacter7 and dosing nutrients.

introduced 7 types good bacteria to compete the nutreints with dino within the tank, in order to overcome(eliminated) the dino eventually.
