Has anyone ever used Hawaiian Marine Nitro Quick, or Nitrex when setting up
a tank? Are their claims of establishing the bacteria within a few days true,
allowing you to add fish in a few days instead of weeks?

Here are some of the claims made by Nitrex

- Nitrex allows you to put fish in your aquarium just as soon as the water is
clear and properly dechlorinated.

- Nitrex is made of a special formulated plastic in which a 'patented'
substance is incorporated causing millions of Nitrsomonas and Nitrobacter
bacteria to develop within 24 hours.

Thanks.
