iQuatics Marine Bio Pearls – Biological Nitrate & Phosphate Remover
Natural Nutrient Control for Reef Aquariums
iQuatics Marine Bio Pearls are biodegradable polymer pellets designed to reduce nitrate (NO₃) and phosphate (PO₄) in marine and reef aquariums.
The pellets provide a continuous carbon source for beneficial bacteria, encouraging biological nutrient uptake. Excess bacterial biomass can then be removed through protein skimming, helping maintain balanced nutrient levels and reduce conditions that encourage nuisance algae.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Reduces nitrate and phosphate through natural bacterial activity.
-
100% biodegradable polymer pellets provide a continuous carbon source.
-
Supports long-term nutrient control in marine and reef aquariums.
-
Helps discourage nuisance algae by reducing excess nutrients.
-
Designed for fluidised biopellet reactors and use alongside a protein skimmer.
-
Gradually consumed, allowing periodic replenishment.
Recommended Dosage
100–150ml per 100 litres of aquarium water, introduced gradually.
For a 300-litre aquarium, begin with approximately 75ml and increase progressively over several weeks, monitoring nitrate and phosphate throughout.
Installation & Maintenance
-
Place the pellets in a suitable fluidised biopellet reactor.
-
Adjust water flow to keep the pellets moving continuously.
-
Use an effective protein skimmer to remove bacterial biomass.
-
Monitor nitrate and phosphate regularly.
-
Replenish the pellets as they are consumed.
Important: Maintain continuous water circulation to prevent clumping and oxygen-depleted conditions. Avoid reducing nutrients too rapidly, particularly in established reef aquariums.
Why Choose iQuatics Bio Pearls?
An excellent choice for reef keepers seeking sustained biological nitrate and phosphate control without conventional chemical adsorption media.
iQuatics Marine Bio Pearls – natural nutrient management for healthier reef aquariums.
