Nitrate Sponge is a granular zeolitic medium which works by two
methods. 1) It slowly directly adsorbs small amounts of ammonia that are
released by fish and natural processes, and 2) it fosters anaerobic
bacterial denitrification due to its physical porous structure. This
denitrification slowly reduces nitrate levels in the aquarium. It works
well in freshwater tanks or tap water to remove toxic ammonia directly!
Nitrate Sponge prolongs the time allowed between water changes
by keeping nitrates low!
Directions:
Place Nitrate Sponge in a large mesh (800 micron) bag on top of your
wet-dry filter or in a canister filter, where water will flow through the
material. It can be used as an excellent media in de-nitrators and other
slow-flow applications. Test nitrates regularly. Several weeks will be
required to see an appreciable drop in nitrates.
