Nitrate is one of the most important parameters in marine aquariums, regardless of the type of living organisms present, including fish and corals. When nitrate levels are excessively reduced and drop to zero, the ability of bacteria to absorb and consume phosphate will not be possible naturally (the nitrogen to phosphorus ratio is 16:1). Therefore, nitrate levels must always remain within an acceptable range (it is recommended to maintain levels between 0.5 to 5 ppm).

One significant effect of nitrate in ULNS (Ultra Low Nutrient Systems) tanks is that if this parameter approaches zero, corals will gradually lose their coloration and tend to turn white, ultimately leading to their death. Additionally, when carbon sources are used in the system to reduce phosphate levels, it is crucial to monitor nitrate levels closely and prevent them from reaching zero to ensure a balanced reduction alongside phosphate.

• Made from FCC and USP grade materials.

• Features a highly precise formulation.

• Offers the highest absorption rate in corals, especially SPS and LPS types.

• Accelerates phosphate reduction when using carbon sources.

• Enhances color and growth in corals.

1. First, accurately determine the nitrate level using a test kit. (The optimal range is 0.5 to 5 ppm.)

2. Shake the bottle well before use.

3. Calculate the weekly nitrate consumption for your tank and determine the appropriate nitrate amount based on the references below:

Reference 1: Each cc can increase nitrate levels by 5.21 ppm in one gallon (3.78 liters).

Reference 2: Each 5 cc can raise nitrate levels by 0.52 ppm in 200 liters.
