Seachem DeNitrate 1000ml Bio Filter Media
Seachem DeNitrate 1000ml - 137 is a highly effective filtration media designed to optimise the denitrification process in aquatic environments. This natural and porous material facilitates both aerobic nitrification on its surface and anaerobic denitrification at its core. Its structure supports a high density of beneficial bacteria and is an excellent addition to any filtration system.
Its design is similar to natural "live" rocks and reef rocks, where anaerobic bacteria colonies thrive deep within its porous matrix to reduce nitrate levels effectively. However, the efficiency of Seachem DeNitrate is notably increased by ensuring water filters through it, enhancing the denitrifying process. It's critical to maintain an appropriate flow rate to avoid disrupting the anaerobic conditions necessary for this bacterial activity.
Seachem DeNitrate can be used in various types of filters, including drip trays, canister filters, sumps, and box filters. It operates best in environments with a controlled flow rate to maximise both aerobic and anaerobic filtration capabilities.
- Promotes aerobic and anaerobic bacterial growth for effective nitrate removal.
- Suitable for various filtration systems, providing versatility.
- Optimises both nitrification and denitrification processes.
- High surface area supports dense bacterial colonies.
For optimal results, it is advisable to place the DeNitrate media in a way that ensures consistent water flow through it, without exceeding 200 L (50 gallons) per hour. Prior to installation, rinse the media to remove any dust. With consistent use, it aids in maintaining nitrate concentrations at safe levels, making it an integral part of managing aquarium water conditions.
Monitor nitrate levels regularly to determine when the media replacement might be necessary, typically when nitrate concentrations begin to rise outside optimal parameters. This product is designed to accommodate aquariums with varying biological loads, ensuring adaptability to different environments.
Key Features:
- Facilitates both nitrification and denitrification.
- Prevents nitrate accumulation effectively.
- Versatile use in several filter types.
- Natural stone-like media with high porosity.
Specifications:
- Volume: 1000ml
- Recommended flow rate: < 200 L/hr (50 US gallons/hr)
- Application: Canister filters, drip trays, sumps, box filters
- Initial treatment capacity: 100–200 L (25–50 gallons)
