It is very important in the maintenance of a marine aquarium that the environment be replenished regularly. The best means of accomplishing this is to change 15 percent to 20 percent of the water once a month. The ideal replacement water is 100% natural ocean saltwater. Natural ocean saltwater contains all the essential elements and micronutrients required by fish, coral and invertebrates that inhabit your aquarium. In addition, natural ocean water contains LIVE bacteria necessary for the rapid removal of biologic wastes.
A critical process in establishing a new marine aquarium system is the culturing of enough bacteria to adequately break down waste products. Nitrification is the first step in this very important process. Nitrification is carried out by unrelated groups of heterotrophic and chemolithotrophic bacteria. The first group converts ammonia to nitrite, which is then converted to nitrate by the second group. The best-known catalysts of these reactions are Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter, respectively, although other groups have also been identified (Belser 1979, Bergey’s 1989). Taken together, these bacteria can be used to ameliorate damage to the aquarium environment by reducing the ammonia content, which is generated as biologic waste. Effective ammonia removal is extremely important as ammonia is toxic to aquatic life and it creates a large demand for oxygen (USEPA 1993).
Nature’s Ocean
Live Nutri-Seawater™
contains live, naturally-occurring planktonic
bacteria, which makes it the best product for monthly water
changes. Nutri-Seawater™ can immediately remove biologic waste
products that have built up in the aquarium environment, and because it
contains live bacteria, it can rapidly reduce the generation of new waste
products.
What keeps the bacteria alive in
Nutri-Seawater™ Bacteria are remarkably adept at surviving feast and famine, and are capable of adjusting their needs to accommodate highly diverse environments. Scientific inquiry has discovered a number of the microbial characteristics that facilitate bacteria's agile adaptations to changing environments. We have investigated this phenomenon and invented new, patented methodology to preserve live bacteria in the marine environment – QX-23. As soon as it is added to your aquarium, Nutri-Seawater™ fortified with QX-23 keeps the planktonic bacteria alive, primed and ready to remove harmful metabolic end products and restore essential elements and micronutrients to optimum levels. Each gallon of Nature’s Ocean Live Nutri-Seawater™ contains more than 11 million live planktonic bacteria, and the following critical elements:
Filtration systems that combine the use of ozone and ultra-violet irradiation destroy all bacteria and helpful micro organisms leaving the water DEAD, and unable to cycle the wastes from your aquarium.
