JBL NBox

JBL NBox – Internal Biological Reactor for Nitrate Reduction in Aquariums

The JBL NBox is an internal biological system designed to sustainably reduce nitrates in the aquarium through a natural denitrification process. It helps improve water quality and limits algae proliferation related to excess nutrients.

Main Features

Operation and Benefits

The JBL NBox operates as a slow-flow biological reactor. Water passes through a specific medium that promotes the establishment of denitrifying bacteria, capable of transforming nitrates into harmless gaseous compounds. This process allows stabilizing aquarium parameters without the use of chemical resins or excessive water changes.

By maintaining a lower nitrate level, the JBL NBox contributes to a healthier environment for fish and plants, while limiting the growth of undesirable algae.

Technical Data

Installation and Maintenance

The JBL NBox is placed directly inside the aquarium, in an area ensuring a slow and regular flow of water. It is recommended to respect the biological setup time necessary for bacteria development before observing a significant reduction in nitrates.

Maintenance mainly involves checking the proper flow of water and avoiding excessive cleaning to preserve the active bacterial colony.
