de❊nitrate Seachem 1 L – Biological Anti-Nitrate Media

de❊nitrate is a highly porous natural material whose internal structure allows the coexistence of aerobic and anaerobic zones. This configuration promotes both surface nitrification and deep denitrification.

Biological Functioning

At low flow rates, oxygen is consumed by aerobic bacteria present on the media's surface. The internal, oxygen-poor zones then allow for the development of anaerobic bacteria responsible for nitrate elimination.

This mechanism is identical to that observed in live reef rocks but with increased efficiency due to the forced passage of water through the media.

Key Points

Installation and Recommended Flow

Treatment Capacity

Each 500 ml of de❊nitrate treats approximately 100 to 200 liters of water, depending on biological load and initial nitrate levels. The product is not consumed as long as nitrates remain under control.

In cases of very high nitrates, it is recommended to bring them below 20 mg/L with water changes before starting the service.

Maintenance

de❊nitrate is a permanent biomedia that does not require replacement. Mechanical pre-filtering is advised to prevent pore clogging and maintain optimal efficiency in the long term.
