Review: You must have this, but off gas it outdoors before adding it - Here is my workaround: Open it outside and pour into your measure container. Let it off gas a few minutes. Then bring inside and add to your tank. After the offgassing process is complete it smells no different than other high-quality microbial lens. This one is more concentrated. I highly recommend!!! Excellent product!!! It saved my tank. Take notice, it does have an incredibly strong odor but see workaround above. Review: I've noticed a difference in water quality - Hello all. I have a planted 55 gallon aquarium with 9 neon tetras, 7 red common tetra,4 pigmy gouramis,6 zebra danios,1 bristle nose pleco,2 nerite snails, and 5 amano shrimp. This tank was set up 2 years ago and established. I decided to use microbe lift as a maintenance when i top off any evaporated water. If you are using uv lights, please turn it off for 12 to 24 hours before first application. I observed visually what was happening about 4 hours later and i noticed very small debris floating in the water column. This product starts working right away. 12 hours later and everything looks good. Clear water, fish are active and all is well. I am planning to attempt to set up a 10 gallon aquarium using the walstad method. I will use microbe lift on this next project. Will update with results when i can. P.s. microbe lift smells like rotten sewage. I suggest to get your dose set up outside, cover cap , go inside quickly amd dump it in aquarium. The smell dissipates quickly. Once in water no more smell. Please try not to spill any indoors. Update 9/25/24. This liquid is great. Water is crystal clear. It even got rid of black hair algae. I add 30 ml once a month. No water changes at all since I started using this product, just a top off due to evaporation. I rn a fluval 407 canister filter, I serviced it 2 weeks ago, and I was surprised at how clean the foam pads were, no build up whatsoever. ## Features - AQUARIUM WATER TREATMENT: Microbe-Lift Special Blend aquarium treatment is the must-have aquarium water treatment for freshwater and saltwater aquariums; It keeps your fish tank cleaner, removes odors, clears water, and reduces maintenance. - REDUCES WASTE & NITRATES: Special Blend quickly breaks down organic waste, uneaten fish food and sludge so water stays cleaner; It acts as a gentle fish tank nitrate remover that supports clearer aquarium water and reduced ammonia and nitrites - SAFE FOR ALL FISH: All natural Special Blend aquarium water conditioner is safe for marine tanks, freshwater. and saltwater aquariums when used as directed; Suitable for fish, invertebrates, live corals and plants as routine aquarium water treatment - BETTER SMELLING, CLEANER AQUARIUMS: Works as a fish tank odor eliminator by targeting the organics that cause smells; Functions as an aquarium water clarifier so décor and glass stay cleaner with less frequent scrubbing - EASY WEEKLY DOSING: Use this natural fish tank cleaner solution when starting a new aquarium after conditioning tap water with Microbe-Lift Xtreme; Use with Microbe-Lift Nite Out II and follow the recommended weekly dosage schedule for lasting results ## Images ![MICROBE-LIFT Special Blend Aquarium Treatment, Fish Tank Water Conditioner for Freshwater and Saltwater Tanks, Helps with Aquarium Algae Control and Odor, 1 Gallon (SBHG1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Cwb0ulyKL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You must have this, but off gas it outdoors before adding it *by A***W on November 9, 2025* Here is my workaround: Open it outside and pour into your measure container.

I extend the cleaning period of my tanks and helps my live plants and the fish. Water is always way clearer with constant use, quality of life is better for the fish and for the most part, pretty easy to use unless you have tank sizes not mentioned and then you have to do some math on it. Great product and I will never stop using this for my fish tanks. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/162483022-microbe-lift-special-blend-aquarium-treatment-fish-tank-water-conditioner](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/162483022-microbe-lift-special-blend-aquarium-treatment-fish-tank-water-conditioner) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
