I used voodoo juice with good results. Next run I’ll also be adding tarantula and piranha.

does it contain enzymes? that is what I need, something I can run with H2O2

I apologize. It’s sensizym you’re looking for. I was looking at beneficials for some reason, not enzymes.

just read that 5 mL per Litre is the application rate. here a 500 ml bottle costs $26 usd plus shipping. my rez is 960liters, so I would need 10 500ml bottles at $26 = $260 usd for one week. Don’t think It’s going to be cost efficient. Anyone know of like a homemade type enzyme that will work?

A little in late, between works and fiestas it’s hardcore here, sorry vivamex ^^

At the “level” of an Hygrozyme and for your use, i see the Cannazym as a decent replacement like Hanz have suggested. But not as an equivalent, i will not lie. You have to reform a bit your customs with this last, wich is more sensitive in (big) tanks and summer heat. Less handly and “put it anywhere and forget it” than Hygrozym, you known. I’ve visited a couple of crops in south spain wich used a dedicated circuit (independant tanks in small volume) to handle it better in your type of conditions. This way they splitted the maintenance, without the need to waste reguraly liters of clean nutrients (recirculating) solution just because the “zym turn over” safe rule (constraint that simply don’t exist with hygrozyme).

On performance side, no worry to have. You will lost nothing on the switch.

all the best to you

Forgot also check out bio-cozyme by growmore it’s 34$ a gal on ebay with shipping. I liked it a lot but subbed it for vitazyme bc was able to sub 2 other products too. Yet bio-cozyme is a good straight enzyme. Growmau5 subbed out cannazyme with it and likes it the same or better.

i was looking into that product and others and some say it works just the same and obviously more concentrated, but i personally never got around to running it, still will try to in the future though.

That pond enzyme should work. You can get it cheaper from landscape supply places or nurseries (Home Depot maybe). I’m pretty sure most of the pond enzyme treatments are the same stuff without the ridiculous markup.

I just scooped a bottle of this for like 12 bucks, has the same enzymes as most big box $$$ ones… Only real difference I hope is Ill just be able to do thousands of gallons with mine… Wicked concentrated!!!
