Brightwell Aquatics MicroBacter CWM - Bacteria Bioculture for Temperate Cold Water Marine Aquariums, Establishes Biological Filtration, 20 Liter

The concentration of dissolved and particulate organic materials in any aquatic environment can have a significant impact on the overall appearance of, as well as the health of organisms residing within, that system. Relatively low-nutrient environments are characterized by high water clarity, lack of unpleasant odors, and absence of microalgae and cyanobacteria; this is collectively a result of the lack of nitrogen-, phosphorus-, and carbon-based waste available. Aquaria that are relatively rich in available nutrients have characteristics opposite to the afore mentioned, and are typically not desirable because of the resultant appearance of the system and the difficulty of maintaining healthy aquarium inhabitants. Brightwell Aquatics MicroBacter CWM is a selective complex of extremely effective microbes and enzymes that rapidly reduces the concentrations of organic nitrogen, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, and organic carbon in coldwater marine ecosystems, leading to greatly improved water quality. Better water quality typically leads to healthier aquarium inhabitants. Does not require refrigeration, however storage in a cool, shaded area will prolong the activity, and maximize the shelf-life, of the product.

• Formulated specifically for temperate (cold water) marine aquaria
• Dual-phase microbial and enzymatic blend which establishes and maintains biological filtration, enhances the rate of nitrification and denitrification, and reduces amount of dissolved and particulate organic material in all temperate marine aquaria down to a temperature of 40°F (~4°C)
• Rapid reduction of organic carbon, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphate; digestion of uneaten/undigested food and reduction of organic compounds into nutrients that encourage the growth of photosynthetic organisms
• Greatly-reduced hydrogen sulfide production; decreased availability of existing phosphate to undesirable forms of algae and cyanobacteria; increased water clarity
• Supplied in a state of suspended animation for maximum longevity
