Has anyone used Nutri SeaWater? Or know Anything about it? I am Considering getting Some To use for water changes. Here is the Breakdown on it.

Nutri-SeaWater

Nature's Ocean Live Nutri-SeaWater contains live, naturally-occurring planktonic bacteria, which makes it the best product for monthly water changes. Nutri-SeaWater can immediately remove biologic waste products that have built up in the aquarium environment, and because it contains live bacteria, it can rapidly reduce the generation of new waste products.

Critical element concentrations (in micrograms/liter)
Aluminum 43.65
Antimony 0.20325
Bromide 97,500
Cadmium 0.129
Calcium 7.088
Chloride 29,055,000
Chromium 1.514
Cobalt 0.070
Iodine 21.600
Iron 14.985
Lithium 278.250
Magnesium 2,085,000
Manganese 1.650
Molybdenum 13.690
Nickel 4.695
Potassium 664,500
Selenium 1.147
Silver 0.032
Sodium 16,155,000
Strontium 15,000
Thallium 0.0093
Tin 0.04125
Vanadium 2.423

I am wondering if it is as good as it seems or is it all Hype?

[welcome]

It's probably okay for water changes, but the bacteria aren't going to help, even if they're actually alive. The bacteria that process waste in our tanks live on the surfaces, and your tank should have plenty of them, in any case.

Hey Thanks for the welcome, Maybe i should tell a little about the tank. I am VERY new to the SW end of the fish keeping Obsession, i have kept tons and tons of FW fish, i even Bred fish for a LFS when i was a kid(15 to 17) But my New Obsession is this Ammonia Factory i call a SW tank. I say this Kinda Joking and Kinda Serious my SW FOWLR has been up for 9 days and is Cycling HARD CORE my ammonia level is So high the color it shows up isn't even on my test Kit. It is Dark Cobalt Blue! Its a 20g Long Tank, it Currently has No Fish in it. It has Live Rock, and Macro Algae in it So Far. I don't have a Sump/Refugium, Nor do i have a Skimmer Yet i should have my Skimmer about the Middle of the week. I Plan on Running Macro In the Tank without a Sump(Cost and Lack of Plumbing skills to set it up.) My Lighting is a little Low But i will have a new Light about the middle of the week as well right now its under s 6500k Natural Daylight Bulb. And i Do believe the light i am getting is either going to be 50/50 or VHO 10000k Blue Actinic Not sure which yet (im getting it as a trade) well that about covers it lol

Sounds fine so far. I'd do some water changes, but they're definitely optional.
