Aquaforest NitraPhos Minus lowers nitrate, nitrite and phosphate from the aquarium
AquaForest NitraPhos Minus is a specialized formula designed to biologically eliminate nitrate, nitrite, and phosphate from your aquarium. It enhances the metabolism of various bacteria, which play a crucial role in managing and removing excess nutrients. Thanks to its unique blend of organic carbon, amino acids, and vitamins, biochemical processes occur smoothly, allowing bacteria to efficiently absorb compounds and convert them into biomass. This biomass serves as a valuable food source for corals, while any excess is removed from the water by your filter or skimmer.
NitraPhos Minus not only improves the overall health of corals but also enhances their coloration and encourages growth. By maintaining a balanced biological environment in the tank, it helps prevent the growth of unwanted green algae and the formation of cyanobacteria.
What is great about this product:
- Effectively removes excess nitrate and phosphate
- Brings chemical balance
- Quickly reduces undesirable algae
- Boosts coral coloration and growth
Recommended dosage:
Concentration of NO3/PO4 (mg/l) | Daily dose ml/100L |
NO3 >10ppm and PO4 >0.2ppm | 3 |
NO3 2-10ppm and PO4 0.1-0.2ppm | 2 – 2.5 |
NO3 <2ppm and PO4 >0.03ppm | 1.5 |
NO3 <2ppm and PO4 <0.03ppm | 1 |
It is recommended to monitor the concentration of NO3 and PO4 once or twice a week.
Good to know:
- Low nitrate and phosphate levels necessitate rich supplementation for corals
- Inefficient filtration may lead to high nitrate and phosphate levels
- Excessive food or supplements can contribute to elevated nitrate and phosphate levels
- A rapid drop in nitrate and phosphate levels can harm zooxanthellae and potentially lead to coral death
