PHOSBAN REACTOR
phosban reactor

THE EASY WAY TO USE PHOSBAN

The PhosBan Reactor 150 is designed with the upflow principle to achieve the most efficient use of PhosBan® or other chemical filter media. By pushing water from the bottom upward through a dispersion plate, it forces an even distribution of water through the media, and prevents channeling. It can be mounted hanging on the back of the aquarium or below the aquarium. Hose barb connections are for 1/2 inch i.d. tubing. Includes 1/2 inch barbed ball valve for flow control, and hose clamps. Recommended flow rate is 80 to 90 gallons per hour.

For use with minimum 150 grams (290 ml) of Phosban up to a maximum of 200 grams (385 ml) of PhosBan. The PhosBan must not fill the reactor, so that it can be fluidized, which is the best way to use it to filter the water.   

Dimensions:

H: 444.5 mm (17.5 inches) with valve attached up

W: 101.6 mm (4 inches); D: 114.3 mm (4.5 inches)

Algone nitrate reducer

Algone , an organic product, uses a novel approach for the gentle removal of ammonia, nitrates and nitrites and their by-products, and the reduction of ammonia in freshwater tropical fish - and the marine aquarium. All natural Algone is the first organic product for these tasks, using a natural process to address the most important problems related to aquarium maintenance. Most products available for the removal of nitrates, nitrites and ammonia use chemical compounds. Most of the chemicals used may cause undesirable chemical reactions within the aquarium environment requiring additional treatment.

Even if severely overdosed, Algone causes no harm to tropical fish, plants, or the water chemistry. Algone has been tested in laboratories and has been in use over a 3-year period with consistent results. Its performance has been rated uniformly as excellent!

Creating Crystal Clear Aquariums

Algone ® gently clarifies the aquarium by precipitating organic and inorganic particles

Corrects the source of the problem rather then just the symptoms
Has a long-term, lasting effect
Improves the overall appearance of the tank

Eliminates harmful consequences on plants and fish

NITE-OUT

MICROBE-LIFT NITE-OUT II Nitrifying Bacteria

Contains: Nitrosomonas Nitrospira

Specially Formulated for Rapid Ammonia and Nitrite Reduction

Decreases Ammonia & Nitrite Toxicity

 

Treats up to 236 gal (893 L.)

MICROBE-LIFT/ Nite-Out II is designed specifically for aquarium waters that contain marine life. Its highly-specialized microbial consortium of nitrifying cultures are specially formulated to eliminate ammonia via a natural biological process termed nitrification. The cultures contained in MICROBE-LIFT/ Nite-Out II will establish, promote or stabilize and maintain nitrification in aquarium waters, eliminating the toxic effect of ammonia. MICROBE-LIFT/ Nite-Out II liquid nitrifying bacteria contains select strains of Nitrosomonas, Nitrospira and Nitrobacter. Nitrosomonas oxidize ammonia to nitrite and Nitrobacter and Nitrospira oxidize nitrite to nitrate.

MICROBE-LIFT/ Nite-Out II comprises select microorganisms that are autotrophic – able to use carbon dioxide as the sole source of carbon – and are relatively slow growing, requiring specific conditions for optimum growth with typical cell divisions rates from 8 to 16 hours. Their performance and rate growth is impacted by the environmental parameters required for nitrification.

Directions: For optimum nitrification and ammonia removal, first treat your aquarium with MICROBE-LIFT/ Nite-Out II, with select cultures to reduce organic levels that may inhibit the natural nitrifications process. Because nitrification requires adequate levels of alkalinity, check the aquarium water’s pH level.

Note: Saltwater slows down bacterial action. For faster results add 25%-50% more product.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

  • A new tank starter for biological cycling and boosting
  • An organic waste degrader
  • Naturally stimulates plant growth
  • Lowers ammonia levels and biologically reduces nitrates
  • Removes odors and clears cloudy water
  • Biological maintainer for established tanks
  • Contains both Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter bacteria
  • Enhances ability of plants to utilize light, water and nutrients
  • Breaks down residue on gravel, plants, rocks, etc.

STOCKING LEVELS/SURFACE AREAS/OXYGEN

Both the size of the aquarium and the water temperatures affects the oxygen content.  The oxygen content and surface area of the tank will determine the proper number of fish for your tank.  Higher oxygen levels support more stocking capacity.  Before introducing any other life form your tank should be adequately aerated to provide the oxygen needed by your fish and the aerobic bacteria contained in SPECIAL BLEND.

Wait 72 hours after adding medications before adding SPECIAL BLEND.

BEST RESULTS

These bacteria are compatible with biological filters and UV lights.  The UV lights should be turned off for 48-72 hours after the addition of this product.  This will allow the bacteria to progress through their most active growth stage.

SPECIAL BLEND works well with activated carbon and is compatible with copper based products.

REEF CARBON

reef carbon The highest quality granular activated carbon based on bituminous coal.  Provides the best combination of pore size, large particle size high surface area, low ash, and hardness for chemical filtering aquarium water.  In addition, test results indicate no leaching of phosphates. The high hardness level of this carbon prevents the dispersion of particles through out  the aquarium which can occur with softer grades of carbon.  The large particle size facilitates water movement through the carbon and helps prevent the removal of planktonic food organisms via mechanical filtration.

B-IONIC CALCIUM BUFFER

B Ionic Calcium Buffer is a revolutionary new method of dosing calcium in the reef aquarium.  B Ionic Calcium Buffer is an easy to use 2 part liquid supplement system that contains no organic compounds.  It solves many of the problems associated with other forms of calcium and buffers.   The system consists of equal parts of component A and B.  When used alone, the recommended dosage is 1 ml per 2 gallons of tank water.  When used along with kalkwasser, dosage should be cut to 1 ml per 4 gallons of tank water.  Alkalinity should be maintained at 3.0 to 3.75 meq/L and calcium should be 400-450 ppm calcium ion.

MAINTAINING CALCIUM HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER!
