NP BACTO PELLET 500ml – Biological Support Media for Nitrate and Phosphate Removal in Marine Aquariums
NP BACTO PELLET 500ml by Tropic Marin is an advanced biological filter medium designed to efficiently reduce nitrate and phosphate levels in marine aquariums. Composed of a natural biopolymer blend, these pellets provide an ideal substrate for colonization by beneficial bacteria and denitrifying microorganisms.
As bacteria grow on the pellet surface, they consume dissolved nitrogen and phosphate compounds, reducing harmful nutrient concentrations in the water. The resulting bacterial biomass can either be removed via protein skimming or serve as a nutritious food source for filter-feeding organisms such as sponges, soft corals, and other invertebrates. This natural process helps stabilize the aquarium environment, prevent unwanted algae growth, and support overall reef health.
NP BACTO PELLET is especially effective in high bioload reef tanks or systems aiming to reduce reliance on chemical phosphate removers and nitrate adsorbers.
