Description
 
Brightwell Aquatics NeoNitro & NeoPhos 500ml can be used to achieve desired nutrient content in reef aquaria for improved health and coloration of inhabitants. Recommended for use by advanced reef aquarists maintaining ultra-low nutrient content systems only.

To the package we add two 50 ml (2 fl. oz.) measuring cups for accurately measuring your NeoPhos & NeoNitro. You can stop using the ones in the kitchen on the sly.

Successfully-operated low-nutrient and ultra-low-nutrient reef aquaria rely upon a balance of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in order to enable beneficial microbes to efficiently remove latent organic material by means of consuming it and converting it into additional microbial biomass. The resulting perpetual supply of planktonic microbes is exported from the system via protein skimming and/or captured by corals and other suspension-feeding invertebrates, recycling the once-latent organic material (waste) into additional biomass of these organisms.

These nutrients are also required by zooxanthellae, and therefore by zooxanthellate invertebrates, for continued existence. The ability of microbes to remove nutrients from their surroundings relies upon the presence of adequate supplies of organic carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus; if any one of these nutrients is not present in adequate supply, microbial uptake slows or ceases and the concentrations of the remaining nutrients increases as nutrient input continues.

The aquarist may employ appropriate filtration material to reduce the concentrations of these nutrients, however bringing the nutrient concentrations into "balance" will accomplish the same task. Failure to maintain adequate nutrient content in any reef system may result in bleaching and/or tissue degradation of zooxanthellate invertebrates.
