Description
Microbial Marine Nitrous is a full-spectrum nitrogen supplement designed to optimize coral health by providing ammonium and urea instead of nitrate. Research indicates corals preferentially uptake these specific nitrogen sources which support faster growth, better coloration, and denser tissue without the stress often caused by traditional nitrate addition. This unique formula helps maintain an ideal population of zooxanthellae within coral tissues for vibrant reef systems.
Manufactured with USP and ACS grade ingredients, this liquid supplement is shelf stable for over a year and remains fully compatible with standard dosing pumps. For regular maintenance applications, the recommended dose is one milliliter per ten gallons of system water daily to deliver approximately 0.1 mg of ammonia. It is also effective for cycling new aquariums where double the dosage can be applied once to accelerate nutrient establishment compared to using ammonium alone.
This product is best suited for advanced reef keepers transitioning from nitrate dosing or those seeking to enhance coral tissue density and coloration naturally. Users should monitor nitrate levels closely when first switching protocols as readings may initially decrease before scaling up the dose weekly to reach desired parameters. Whether cycling a new tank or maintaining an established reef, this supplement offers a scientifically backed approach to nitrogen management.
