## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it work with sand?**
A: I would assume so.  The bacteria in microblift job is to  consume uneaten food on the bottom: rocks or sand.

**Q: Is this safe for a planted aquarium?**
A: yes it is

**Q: Does this contain copper and is it safe for freshwater shrimp and snails?**
A: It hasn't hurt my shrimp or snails.

**Q: Can I keep my led lights on**
A: LEDs will be fine.  If you are running UV, it will need to be shut off.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well
*by K***R on June 22, 2025*

Works well for my 29 G tank ,I have a planted coal slag tank and this keeps my the algae down and the water clean

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This stuff works great!
*by W***H on March 7, 2024*

It’s dark colored so your water will turn brownish when you put this in the tank, but it clears quickly. After using this for a while I can say that my water has never been so clear and my artificial plants have never been so clean. Extremely pleased and I only use the lower recommended dose on the bottle every two weeks.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cleaned up Up my tank when it was cloudy.
*by J***F on April 5, 2022*

Fast Easy shipping - worked first time I used it. Makes tank a little murky at first but then bammm cleans it right up. Filters do the rest.
