- EcoBio-Block Aquarium Water Clarifier (Small, 8–16 gal)

I was skeptical. I had tried everything the internet and the local fish stores said to do. Nothing worked. Added the Rock to the tank on 7/22. It took about a week before there was a massive difference but I could see a small one daily. Tank has been crystal clear for more than a week now. No chemicals. No water change. I did add a new bubble disc under the rock.

It works! I set up a goldfish aquarium and little did I know all the research I should have done beforehand. My aquarium was cloudy for about 2 weeks and nothing was clearing it, even the brand new filter system I set up with Seachem Stability live bacteria I was adding each day. This rock randomly came up in my search and the one review that shows before and after was the reason I bought it. You need to soak it overnight in tank water or tank safe water. Once added, my fish tank slowly started to clear a little each day and by day 5, crystal clear. I’m thrilled!

The rocks appear to be working well

This block is great in a 10 gallon tank. Absorbs air and helps clarify the water.

They work. Started a new 10 gallon tank with the EcoBio Block and cycled the tank. Never had an ammonia spike. Keeps water clear along with the Hygger HOB filter. Crystal clear water which we are all trying to achieve. Purigen packs in filter also help. Great combo.

EcoBio-Blockfor Aquarium water The information on the box is not complete. I followed those instructions perfectly and lost a 15" pleco, three butterfly Koi that were 8 to 10" , 12" goldfish. These fish all ment something to my family.

I bought it and it made more of a mess than my turtle. It crumbles and leaves debris everywhere on bottom of tank, read it had to be by flowing water so i put near the filter and NOPE .just made water cloudy and particles everywhere...So had to change out the water and i set it aside in the tank (no clue why i even put if back in there after having to clean the whole tank because of it) my turtle started pushing it under his basking platform ..and fell asleep on top of it...he uses it as a bed now lol so as long as he's happy and uses it for something i suppose its not a complete waste of money

Long review but I felt it was needed. I ordered 2 Medium Eco-Bio Block Stones 02/22/17. I have a 300 gallon cichlid tank. Had cichlids over 20 years. 2 excellent cannister filters. Have always had good tank care. Even with great water circulation and appropriate scheduled tank management after approx 3-5 days, I would sit and think 'I wish I could change my polisher pads' but as with most things in life....it would fall down on my priority list and they would be changed with my routine filter care. That was a constant occurrence for years. I loved to sit and enjoy my freshly maintained water that was crystal clear for that 3-5 days after my scheduled maintenance. But the really beautiful clarity left too quickly. Little did I know that was the least of my upcoming problems. Sadly, my water well has since failed and is testing VERY high with nitrates. 160ppm or possibly even more....so sad! I am thankful that fish can acclimate and mine have done incredible but I am unable to purchase any new fish or to give any to other tanks due to the drastic chemistry. Water changes actually tend to increase my nitrates....I can give my children bottled water and insure my family is safe but a 300 gallon fresh water tank....posed a more complicated situation. Fast forward to my search for a momentary solution (until we can get a new well) for my fish that I have had for years and did not want to loose. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS AS AN OPEN DOOR TO CRITICIZE ME OR MY PRACTICES.... This novel is intended to help someone that may possibly be in the same situation as I was. There is no product that will help high nitrates that are already established in your planned supply of water. They must be naturally balanced. To anyone who has had fresh water fish for years and they have done just great and then all of a sudden...you notice new fish don't thrive and usually end up dying....check your water. You may grow complacent to your established system and variables CAN change without you being aware. Now for my review. I just wanted to help anyone that really wants to know how these things work....I wanted to give some of my history so I could establish my perspective. I did a test run in a pitcher of water with a air stone under the eco-bio stones. I used my established tank water and checked my nitrates and pH approximately every 12 hours for each water specimen. I wanted to accurately measure effectiveness. Within 48 hours the pH in the pitcher went through the roof!...I expected that, so warning....you have remember the chemistry of nitrate, pH and hardness balance. It was a gradual process...no sudden spikes. However, I was shocked at the fact that my nitrates came down to 40ppm within 48 hrs!....Remember, I started at 160ppm and very possibly higher than that....I was amazed! Now just under two weeks later, my water is amazing! It has looked as if I have changed my polisher pads every day!!!! I love that!!! My nitrates sadly....are the same but I guess...considering the size of my tank....it is not a surprise. The information sheet does say 2-4 weeks....not to mention, I'm sure my fish would not fare well if it did suddenly decrease and my water chemistry changed drastically. I am completely happy with the results and that it even without the nitrate component,,,,the clarity is incredible!!! So, I would highly recommend the purchase of these stones! In fact, I just purchased two more Medium Stones for my tank and a Small Stone for my son's small goldfish tank!

Sirve super bien, aclaró mucho eñ agua de mi pecera, me encantó!

A bit pricey but these really work so worth it if you want something natural and low maintenance to help keep your tank clear and clean.

Seems a good acccessory it’s helping keep tank clean and clear

Before having this magic stone, I had to change filter weekly ( filter was black and completely plugged by the end of 1 week) and water change bi-weekly. Now, the filter was clean after 1 week, and water perfectly clear by the end of 2 weeks. I have 6 good sized gold fish in each tank. thanks to this magic EcoBio-Block stone. This is THE single most efficient, and cheapest equipment for fish tank!!

Like it helps keeps the fish tank clean and fresh
