from what i understand it is simply introducing a carbon source to feed and proliferate bacteria in the tank.

this bacteria is denitrifying bacteria, so it helps get rid of any floating nitrates (not literally floating).

From what I can gather this is used to reduce the macro levels of nitrates in the tank below what the lowest measurement of the typical test kit can discern.

Am I on target so far?

What can you add to this?
