Description

Easy-to-use filter medium for effective nitrate and phosphate removal with lasting effect.

Low nitrate and phosphate concentrations, as found in nature, enable bright and vibrant colors with excellent growth and coral vitality. To create these near-natural conditions in the aquarium, nutrient concentrations must be controlled.

Tropic Marin ® NP-BACTO-PELLETS are completely new biodegradable pellets made from a blend of natural biopolymers. They promote the colonization and growth of nitrate- and phosphate-utilizing bacteria and other aerobic microorganisms. Through abrasion and degradation of the pellets, the microorganisms are washed into the aquarium, where they become available as high-quality food for corals and other filter feeders, or can be skimmed off.

Recommended use:

The NP-BACTO PELLETS must be used in a suitable fluidized bed filter or pellet reactor. To remove nutrients and promote gas exchange, vigorous skimming of the aquarium water is recommended. Do not over-brew the Tropic Marin ® Rinse NP-BACTO-PELLETS with boiling water before use to expel any air. Start with 50 ml of NP-BACTO-PELLETS per 100 l of aquarium volume. Double the amount after 4 weeks if necessary. A maximum of 200 ml per 100 l of aquarium volume should not be exceeded. We recommend replenishing used material monthly.

For particularly rapid and effective nutrient degradation, the pellet reactor outlet can be directed close to the skimmer inlet.

Tropic Marin ® NP-BACTO-BALANCE is the ideal complement to NP-BACTO-PELLETS for rapid and sustainable nutrient degradation.
