TROPIC MARIN - Components Nitrogen - 500ml

Why is nitrogen essential in a reef aquarium?

Nitrogen is a fundamental element for the health of corals and the symbiotic algae they host. These algae, called zooxanthellae, ensure photosynthesis and provide corals with a significant portion of their energy. A nitrogen deficiency leads to a decrease in coral growth and a loss of coloration. In addition, nitrogen acts as an antagonist of phosphates: an imbalance between these two elements can promote the proliferation of unwanted algae.

A simple and controlled dosage

With its stabilized formula , Tropic Marin Components Nitrogen allows a safe and gradual supply. The recommended dosage is 1 ml per 100 liters of water to increase the nitrate concentration by 1 mg/l. To avoid overdosing, it is advisable not to exceed 2 ml per 100 liters per day . Thanks to its integrated dropper and measuring cap, it is easy to precisely adjust the amount of nitrogen added to your aquarium.

An optimal nutritional balance

To ensure harmonious coral growth, it is essential to monitor and balance nitrate and phosphate levels. The addition of this supplement can be combined with other essential elements such as calcium and strontium to maintain optimal water parameters. Regular monitoring of water quality is recommended to avoid any excess or deficiency.

ICP analysis: precise control of water parameters

To best adjust nitrogen intake and ensure optimal balance, it is recommended to perform a Tropic Marin ICP analysis . This advanced method accurately measures nitrate levels and other essential parameters. With these detailed results, you can adjust your nutrient intake and avoid imbalances that could harm the health of your aquarium.
