Cleaning and vacuuming gravel required will help. **Q: Is it ok to automatic daily dose with automatic dosing machine, or does the bottle have to be shaken prior to the dosing make this a bad idea?** A: You can use automatic dosing machine, **Q: Purchased microbacter clean 250ml on 2-23-22. i received 2 bottles of "chaetogro" with a sticker on them saying "microbacter clean". what gives?** A: This is a shipping error (obviously) from whomever shipped the product to you.
