Premium Biopellets
Our biopellets are manafactured from pure Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), from a strain of bacteria specifically for use in aquaria systems. Biopellets are a popular method of reducing phosphate and nitrate levels in your aquarium. The pellets provide a food source for bacteria that also consume nitrate and phosphate. As your tank water passes through the biopellet reactor, bacteria get flushed off the pellets and enter the aquarium's water column, where they consume nitrates. Then the bacteria is removed through several methods, including protein skimmer, and consumption by tank inhabitants. The bacteria may also convert the nitrate to nitrogen gas. DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS: • 1) Standard dose for new or exceptionally low nutrient tanks is 180g. or approximately 1 cup, per 50 gallons in a fluidized reactor. For aquariums with measurable nitrates, 1/2 to even 1/4 starting dose is recommended for first 3-4 weeks, increasing weekly thereafter. Once system is established, overdose
