Josh's Frogs Bioactive Booster (4.25 oz)
Josh's Frogs Bioactive Booster is a safe, effective way to accelerate the cycling process in your bioactive environment. Bioactive Booster contains beneficial fungi and trace elements that will help plants and microfauna populations establish and grow faster. Together, they process unwanted nutrients.
Shelf Life: The beneficial fungal spores used remain dormant in a dried state for years. They're not active until they encounter water, so as long as they are kept dry, as in this bottle, they remain viable for years to come.
In new vivariums, cycling is important because it breaks down your pet’s waste, keeping the enclosure clean. If the microfauna populations aren’t given time to establish before adding your pet, they can be eaten and wiped out. If they are added in advance, there may not be enough food for them to establish in a brand new environment.
Even in existing vivariums, it is important to keep the cycle going so that your pet doesn’t get sick. Mature plants can exhaust the nutrients in the substrate and start to struggle or the microfauna populations could have grown so much that they need supplemental feeding.
Trace Elements and Minerals:
- Iron, Magnesium
- Potassium, Silicon
- Chlorine, Nitrogen
- Phosphorous, Boron
- Calcium, Sodium
- Cobalt, Copper
- Sulfur, Molybdenum
- Zinc
How to Use
Shake
Simply sprinkle Josh's Frogs Bioactive Booster on the surface of your substrate, then turn the substrate to mix Bioactive Booster throughout. In existing setups, Bioactive Booster can be lightly sprinkled on the surface of the substrate every few months.
Rinse
Spray with water until it is no longer visible. Apply one shake per square foot of substrate.

When I started out my enclosure I didn't up anything in it to have it bioactive. After I had it set up I put this in and plants. My plants are growing good all my Isopods in springtails are alive and thriving. It is also growing mushrooms. If you are going to have a bioactive enclosure I would definitely get this to help set it up.

Pretty sure this is "snake oil", there are no ingredients listed... No clue if this is supposed to be beneficial bacteria, mycelium, or what - regardless, neither of those things are shelf-stable in powder form. I haven't seen any positive results from use. This is equal to the "scam" of probiotics - these "organisms" cannot live in a powder form unless constant refrigeration. Once any of these products hits room temperature even for a short time all beneficials will be dead.The only way this product could have value is if it's meant to "feed" beneficials - but since there are no listed ingredients or any information on the actual contents there is really no way to tell.

I think it worked like it was designed for. It helped my stingtails create a good culture. The top was loose when it came so it was kinda a mess to deal with at first.
