Aquacare Nitrate Reactor
Why autotrophic de-nitrification?
If you feed much and you have several fish in your aquarium, nitrate will
accumulate with time. If you cannot lower the concentration with water changes,
trickling filters, you need a nitrate eliminating filter system. If nitrate is
more than 20 ppm in the water, negative growth of green or blue green algae will
occur. Some kinds of fish or corals do not tolerate high amounts of nitrate.
Autotrophic de-nitrification has some advantages compared to systems that work
with heterotrophic bacteria. With the ADN filter you do not need an organic
compound. Theses substances like alcohol, organic acids, sugar, PHB = poly-beta-
hydroxy-butyric acid ("Deniballs") etc. may pollute the water. Additional a very
strong bacteria growth will occur. These bacteria are polluting the water, too.
The handling of heterotrophic filter systems is very complicated or you need an
expensive controller
The small disadvantage is the long time to start the filter and if you have very
rough changing in the nitrate concentrations, the filter will need a little more
time to adapt to the new concentration. But in an aquarist system you will not
have difficulties. Like other autotrophic bacteria - nitrifying bacteria - they
will work in a coral reef tank without problems. The advantages are much bigger
than the disadvantages:
Long life time of the filter substrate
Low biomass growing - therefore low bacteria pollution of the aquarium water
High flow rates
No additional organic compounds are necessary
Easy aeration
Intensive mixing within the filter with a good pump - therefore high efficiency
If you wish with Redox control (ORP)
For filter sump or for stand alone
