"Marineland will NOT be releasing any more Freshwater Bio-spira until
probably some time in Sept.!!! I am cutting off any further orders of
FW Bio-spira as well. I will be filling those orders taken to date but
no more until Marineland opens it back up.
The Salt Bio-spira is continuing as normal and, in fact, will have a
1oz package out sometime the first week of April!
The concept of putting out an "open shelf stock" version of Bio-spira
was cancelled (as we figured) because it was generally agreed and
admitted that non-refrigerated shelf-life does deteriorate too
quickly.
The whole reasoning from Marineland goes like this:
The demand has completely "outstripped" their capability to
re-generate enough growth of the bacteria to meet demands..... and
they would have continued difficulty meeting orders. Their thinking is
to use all the bacteria growth throughout the summer to build a
sufficient back-stock to once again re-release the product with enough
on hand to fully meet demands."

"Currently Marineland has placed a HOLD on shipments of Freshwater
Bio-Spira in order to build sufficient levels to meet the unexpected
demands for this product. Therefore, we have suspended shipments of FW
Bio-spira and can no longer accept orders for it until shipments
resume. Shipments are expected to resume by late summer. We apologize
for any inconveniences."
