Tropic Marin NP-Bacto-Pellets is an easy-to-use, biodegradable filter media designed for the effective removal of nitrates and phosphates from your saltwater aquarium. It works by creating an ideal surface for beneficial bacteria to colonize, which naturally consume these excess nutrients. By maintaining naturally low nitrate and phosphate levels, this media helps create a stable environment where corals can display their most vibrant colors and experience vigorous growth.

This advanced filter media is made from a unique mixture of natural biopolymers that actively promote the colonization and growth of nitrate and phosphate-reducing bacteria. As these microorganisms thrive, they form a valuable biomass that can be removed by a protein skimmer or serve as a nutritious food source for corals and other filter feeders. The compact pellet form is specifically designed for use in fluidized bed filters or pellet reactors, ensuring optimal water flow and efficiency. Bacterial colonization begins quickly and continues on an ongoing basis for stable nutrient control.

NP-Bacto-Pellets are ideal for reef aquarists who want to achieve and maintain an ultra-low nutrient system for healthier, more colorful corals. It is particularly beneficial for hobbyists looking for a simple, long-term solution to nutrient control that avoids the need for frequent liquid dosing. By implementing this media, aquarists can replicate the low-nutrient conditions of natural coral reefs, resulting in a more beautiful and thriving aquarium ecosystem.
