Nitrate Destroyer 1000 mL

All living creatures need nitrates and phosphates to survive. This product is the missing ingredient to grow Heterotrophic bacteria. These living organisms assimilate nitrates, phosphates and bio-available organic carbon into their biomass, lowering nitrogen and phosphorus levels in the water. Once these organisms have bloomed, corals feed on them and a skimmer takes out the rest.


This exporting of nutrients via protein skimming is essential to the success of this product.


Notes: - some cloudiness may occur

- protein skimmer must be left running

- UV sterilizers will effect the performance of this product

-*Helps Reduce Nitrates It is the creators of Tailored Aquatic opinion that small amount of an organic carbon source added daily to a reef tank along with a well maintained protein skimmer will reduce Nitrates over long term.

ZERO Nitrates!, 22nd Sep 2008

Reviewer: Sarah Kirk

I had really really high nitrate levels (as pink as the test kit goes or in excess of 100ppm!!!) I used the product per the instruction...started to see some color up and growth on coral that had been ok but not thriving...just did a final Nitrate test and it's ZERO.....I have no detectable nitrates in my tank!!! This is a first for any of my tanks...AMAZING PRODUCT!
