BIOPELLETS NP
SKU:HBB-0374
Biopellets NP is an easy-to-use filter material for reducing the nitrate and phosphate content in the marine aquarium. NP Biopellets are 100% biodegradable polymers with the added benefit of providing a surface and nutrient source for nitrate removing bacteria. As they grow, the bacteria use the Biopellets NP as an organic carbon source (energy source) and the phosphate and nitrate in the aquarium water as a source of nitrogen and phosphorus. The nitrate and phosphate waste is converted into microbial biomass and then removed from the aquarium by the skimmer or as an additional feed source (bacterial plankton) by invertebrates feeding through water filtration, mussels, sponges and corals. Includes spoon.
Application: Biopellets NP have been developed for application in fluidised or bed reactors for marine aquariums. Strong water skimming is essential for gas exchange and nutrient extraction. Initially, 50 ml of Biopellets NP should be used for every 100 litres of aquarium water. You can double the amount every 4 to 5 weeks if necessary, it is very important not to exceed 200ml of Biopellets NP per 100 litres of water
