Find a productProduct description
BioNitratEX is a filter media insert for hobbyists who struggle with nitrate build-up in freshwater or marine aquariums. Nitrate is the nutrient that feeds excess algae growth, so the product targets the cause of an algae problem rather than the algae itself.
Why it matters
- Each bead is coated in several layers of beneficial bacteria, which act on nitrate directly inside the filter.
- The beads contain nutrients that the bacteria use to break nitrate down into nitrogen gas (N2) and oxygen (O2), removing it from the water.
- The pack contains 100 pieces, which is enough for tanks up to 300 l, according to the manufacturer.
- It works in both freshwater and saltwater, so one product covers either type of setup.
