AquaMedic NitrateReductor1000
Denitrifying filter for both fresh and sea water aquaria from 200L - 1000L.
Consists of the reaction vessel (height -50cm, volume approx 10L. ) which is filled with AM Bactoballs. [ Ammonium + Oxigen (Nitrosomonas) -> Nitrite + Oxigen (Nitrobacter) -> Nitrate ] In absence of oxigen, many bacteria are able to use nitrate as a substitute oxigen for their metabolism. [ 2nitrate -> nitrogen gas + 3oxigen ] 2NO3 -> N2 + 3O2 The oxigen is used for the metabolism, the nitrogen is excreted into the water. Nitrogen gas is a natural compound of the water and totally harmless. |

I am happy with the present level of the NO3 between 10 and 20 ppm depending on when the readings are taken ie before or after feeding.
Ekia .. NO3 at 1 ppm, are you having a diet program for your LS? :} |
