Aquaforest Probiotic Method

The Aquaforest probiotic method is composed of carefully selected bacteria in an effort to reduce levels of nitrates and phosphates in the reef aquarium. It is highly recommended for seasoned aquarists that understand basic aquarium chemistry since it will be creating an ultra low nutrient system (ULNS). A powerful protein skimmer, strong circulation, and testing is required for the probiotic method as well. With a ULNS system, it is required to have a precise dosing system to keep amino acids, vitamins, and food available for the corals or starvation may happen.

 

Mixing Instructions:

Dissolve salt with RO/DI water in a clean container. To achieve a salinity of 33 ppt, we suggest starting with 1 kg (2.2lbs) of Probiotic reef salt per 7 gallons (26 liters) of RO/DI water. Stir the mixture vigorously until it is fully dissolved and clear. Once the solution is transparent check the salinity with a refractometer and then it can be used right away.

 

Note: We highly recommend heating your freshly made saltwater to match your tanks temperature, allowing for the best results.
