BIO DIGEST
for optimum water quality.
BIO TRACE trace elements to speed up metabolic
rates.
REEF BOOSTER quality food for corals.
IODI+ and STRONTI+ precisely
measured supplements.
Bio Digest
Is composed of selected nitrifying and nitrate/phosphate reducing
bacterial strains. BIO DIGEST establishes
biological filtration, and cleans aquariums biologically by
digesting waste matter by means of nine optimally proportioned
strains of heterotrphic bacteria including
- Paracoccus
denitrificans and Pseudomonas stuzerii
These bacteria perform complementary functions, with each strain
taking over where its predecessor left off, cleaning soil and
filters, purifying, reducing nitrates and phosphates and preventing
the growth of algae. By competing for food they
also prevent the proliferation of pathogenic organisms, improving
water quality and thus reducing the risk of unexplained diseases.
Since bacterial strains reproduce at different rates, the proportions
between them soon start to vary. To readjust optimum proportions
add one ampoule of BIO DIGEST every
fortnight for up to 1,000 litres of water. If you wish to
speed up the purification process do not increase the dose,
but use more frequently, for example every week.
Bio Trace
Is a concentrate of TRACE ELEMENTS which speeds up biological
activity. Trace elements are essential for every living organism.
BIO TRACE include SULPHUR for proteins,
IRON for plants and fish blood, Cobalt for B vitamins
and BORON for many products metabolised during
tissue building and organic breakdown.In aquariums essential
trace elements, needed for all biological activity, are consumed
by algae, plants, invertebrates, etc... and neutralised or eliminated
by the skimmer and activated charcoal.
The decomposition of waste also eliminates a significant number
of trace elements, leading to obvious
signs of trace element deficiency. This may stop all bacterial
activity and cause a general slowing of the purification process,
resulting in : Stagnant water, proliferation of algae, lifeless
fish, stunted plants, etc.
BIO TRACE speeds up the reproduction
of purifying bacteria and the production of aquarium waste digesting
enzymes by up to 10 times. BIO TRACE combined
with BIO DIGEST revitalises the aquarium,
restores VIGOUR and HEALTH to both fresh and salt
water. This results in clearer, healthier water, livelier fish
and invertebrates that flourish.
Composition :
Essential nutrient trace elements: Boron, Calcium, Copper,
Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum,
Potassium, Sulphur, Zinc, etc.
Average dose :
 Every
two weeks BIO TRACE : 1 amp/200 litres.
Reef Booster
Is an enriched combination of essential nutritional supplements
for the development of invertebrates primarily or partly feeding
on microscopic plankton, including symbiotic algae-bearing corals
- Zooxanthellae - for which a microscopic plankton booster is
necessary. REEF BOOSTER has been
perfected with the assistance of fish-keeping experts, from
products which are highly effective in starting off the larvae
of crustaceans, molluscs and bivalves. Experience shows that
in a properly equipped aquarium, adding a high quality and balanced
food, encourages the development of corals and microscopic plant-life.
This also reduces nitrates and phosphates by naturally feeding
the anaerobic bacteria of live rocks. The corals use the Omega-3
fatty acids of REEF BOOSTER to stabilise
the chloroplastids in which photosynthesis of zooxanthellae
takes place, and to prevent bleaching. The
most noticeable effects are the expansion of
hermatypical corals, Plerogyra and Euphyllia and
the deployment of ahermatypical polyps Scleronephtya,
Tubastraea, Gorgonian corals... when the
cloud of food is present. The effects on development are visible
after a few weeks.
Composition :
Phospholipids, amino acids, marine type fatty acids, vitamins,
carotenoids.
Average dose :
1
Ampoule to 400 litres once a week stopping skimmer and filter
for half an hour.
IODI+
Iodine supplement for reef aquarium. Iodine performs a very
important role as a trace element in the aquarium environment.
Invertebrates need it for coloration and for adapting to lighting
variations. Then it helps combat coral bleaching neutralizing
the excess oxygen produced by zooxanthellae under excessive
lighting. It is eliminated by the algae and invertebrates in
the aquarium, by the protein skimmer and the active carbon,
and by dispersion into the atmosphere. IODI+
is an iodine/iodide compound that contains all the forms of
iodine required for coral development and coloration.
One ampoule of IODI+ contains 76 mg of iodine.
This allows you to control the quantity of Iodine you are adding
in your tank.
Average dose :
1
ampoule per 400 litres every two weeks.
Keep away from children. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Stronti+
Strontium is an essential trace element in the reef aquarium
environment. It stimulates growth in hard corals and assists
in the development of the red calcareous that produce the live
rock decor. This organism fixes strontium in its skeleton along
with calcium, so the strontium demand is constant.
In a reef aquarium environment the strontium is rapidly depleted.
STRONTI+ adds all the strontium
needed for healthy growth of coral, clams, and limestone algae.
Each capsule contains 130 mg of strontium. This allows
you to control the quantity of Iodine you are adding in your
tank. In a reef aquarium, the strontium diminishes proportionally
with the calcium, so you can gauge the strontium demand by examining
the calcium content.
Average dose :
One
capsule per 400 litres every week.
Keep away from children. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
