Aquavitro BiogenAquavitro BiogenRRP: £69.59Our price: From £41.99You save: £27.60 (40%)Viewbiogen™ is a carbon-based biopolymer (PHA) designed to reduce nitrate and phosphate. In a fluidized bed reactor, it will support the growth of bacteria that consume nitrate and phosphate over 10% more efficiently than the leading competitor. Reducing phosphate and nitrate can enhance coral coloration and reduce nuisance coatings of rock and decorations.Directionsbiogen™ should be used in a reactor that provides a flow of water that keeps the beads moving. Bacteria will colonize the beads in 2 - 4 weeks. To accelerate this process use a bacterial supplement such as seed™ or remediation™.Add 60 mL (1/4 cup) per 265 L (70 US gallons) weekly until a total dose of 60 mL (1/4 cup) per 85 L (23 US gallons) is reached. Slowly increasing the amount will prevent sudden drops in phosphate and nitrate and reduce the risk of a bacterial bloom. As beneficial bacteria consume the beads, add more to maintain the dose. Do not wait until the reactor is empty before adding more. It is important to monitor the reactor and adjust the flow to keep the beads moving. Non-moving beads may result in anaerobic conditions and possible production of hydrogen sulfide. If this happens, remove the beads from the reactor, rinse them, replace the beads and restart the flow. A protein skimmer is recommended to remove any excess bacteria biomass. For a system without a skimmer, a regularly cleaned mechanical filter is adequate.Aquavitro Calcium ReactorAquavitro Calcium ReactorRRP: £225.00Our price: £175.00You save: £50.00 (22%)ViewThe element™ Ca Reactor provides and maintains a virtually constant calcium, magnesium and alkalinity ratio, which is critical to the long term success of reef aquaria. The element™ Ca Reactor functions by using CO2 to react with a calcium reactor media such as Seachem’s Reef Reactor™. CO2 acidifies the water flowing through the reactor and thereby dissolves the media which releases calcium, magnesium, carbonates among other elements and components of the chosen reactor media. A CO2 filled tank along with a pH probe and preferably a CO2 controlling system are required and/or highly recommended for proper functionality of the element™ Ca Reactor.Easily Removable Inner ChamberThe inner chamber can be removed without full breakdown making it easy to clean, change or top off media.CO2 Recycling FeatureMake full use of CO2 injection by recirculating it using the element™ Ca’s CO2 recycling feature. This also offers potential savings on the cost of CO2 canisters and refills.High Capacity ChamberThe reactor chamber can hold up to 1.2 Liters of your choice of calcium reactor media (e.g. Seachem Reef Reactor™)Effluent Control ValveEasily control the release of dissolved media into the aquarium. The water can be directed back into the sump, directly to the aquarium, or even a protein skimmer such as the aquavitro® division™ series.Highly Reactive Probe PlacementAllows for rapid response by controllers to avoid over-shooting CO2 injection. Saves CO2 and allows for consistent and efficient dosing.Powerful External PumpAllows for higher column flow volume with more contact time and surface area. Allows for easy maintenance of the pump at anytime.Aquavitro Calcium ReactorAquavitro Calcium ReactorOur price: £225.00ViewThree ways to set up! Aquavitro Element Media ReactorAquavitro Element Media ReactorRRP: £169.99Our price: £155.00You save: £14.99 (9%)ViewThe element™ M Reactor is a filter media reactor that allows for the use of virtually any type of filter media in either fluidized or non-fluidized flow - including fine particle media such as resins. The element™ M Reactor allows for excellent efficient reaction with consistent even flow from the bottom of the reactor to the top. Using the adjustable internal plate, filter media can even be separated to allow for various uses within the same reactor. The element™ M Reactor features a by-pass valve which allows for fine flow regulation for even the most delicate media such as beaded resins.Easily Removable Inner ChamberThe inner chamber can be removed without full breakdown making it easy to clean, change or top off mediaMovable Separation Plate for Various Volumes of MediaThe separation plate can be moved up and down which allows you to run any amount of media in a compacted fashion, preventing sheering of mediaHigh Capacity ChamberThe reactor chamber can hold up to 1.2 Liters of your choice of filtration mediaSensitive and Versatile Flow RegulationOffers highly controlled flow rate for running any type of media at any speed (even resins such as Seachem Purigen® or purfiltrum™)Polishing Mechanical Filter FinishThe included addition of a fine filter sock finish acts as a fine mechanical filter so no media particles escape into system. It also prevents micro bubbles from being released into the aquarium to irritate coralsPowerful External PumpAllows for higher column flow volume with more contact time and surface area. Allows for easy maintenance of the pump at anytime.Versatile Sump PlacementThe element™ M and element™ Z have added versatility in positioning the return spillway. So depending on the size of your sump and placement of other equipment, you can always find a good fit.
Aquavitro Element Zeo ReactorAquavitro Element Zeo ReactorRRP: £209.99Our price: £160.99You save: £49.00 (23%)ViewVersatile, compact zeolite reactor for up to 100 US gallons/380 litresThe element™ Z Reactor is designed to utilize zeolite as a filter media in removing various pollutants from a reef aquarium while also providing a media to house beneficial bacteria. This method of filtration has been shown to increase coral coloration in many cases by reducing organic nutrient loads in reef aquaria to much lower levels. An important factor in use of the element™ Z Reactor is to utilize the wash feature of the reactor on the media 1-2 times per day. The wash of the media allows for more efficient filtration by keeping the bio film that grows on the media at a minimum while also feeding reef aquarium inhabitants the bio film itself.Easily Removable Inner ChamberThe inner chamber can be removed without full breakdown making it easy to clean, change or top off media.Movable Separation Plate for Various Volumes of MediaThe separation plate can be moved up and down which allows you to run any amount of media in a compacted fashion, preventing sheering of media.High Capacity ChamberThe reactor chamber can hold up to 1.2 Liters of your choice of zeolite (e.g. Seachem Zeolite™)Two Pump Feature for Easy Flow ReversalUsing the “Easy Wash” feature will release bacteria into the system for corals by alternating cycles on the pumps - reverses direction of flow easily. The “Easy Wash” feature includes the ability to add aeration.Polishing Mechanical Filter FinishThe included addition of a fine filter sock finish acts as a fine mechanical filter so no media particles escape into system. It also prevents micro bubbles from being released into the aquarium to irritate corals.Versatile Sump PlacementThe element™ M and element™ Z have added versatility in positioning the return spillway.

It has a grain size of approximately 0.5–1 cm (Reef Reactor™ Lg is 1 - 3 cm). It is intended for use in calcium reactors where it is dissolved slowly with the addition of CO2. As it dissolves, it provides calcium, magnesium, strontium, potassium, and carbonates among other important elements for reef aquaria. It is excellent at increasing and stabilizing alkalinity, which also supports a stable pH and encourages the rapid formation of coral skeletal material. With high levels of both calcium and magnesium, it offers an excellent means of balanced supplementation for rapid growth and propagation of corals and calcareous animals in reef aquaria. It possesses the highest level of soluble potassium of all competing brands while exhibiting the lowest levels of both aluminum and phosphorus.DirectionsRinse Reef Reactor™ prior to initial placement in your calcium reactor. The rate of water flow through the reactor in conjunction with the pH of the water inside the reactor will control the rate of media dissolution. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions furnished with the calcium reactor and adjust the rates of water flow and CO2 injection to attain the desired concentrations of calcium and alkalinity in the effluent.Seachem Reef Reactor MdSeachem Reef Reactor MdRRP: £38.59Our price: From £21.99You save: £16.60 (43%)ViewSeachem Reef Reactor Medium•High Purity Calcium Reactor media•Provides Calcium , magnesium , strontium , potassium and carbonates•0.5 - 1cm grain sizeDescriptionReef Reactor™ is a high-purity source of aragonite, which supplies all important elements for optimal ionic balance and robust coral growth and coloration in reef aquaria.
