    Description

    Algone is a great product made in the USA.
    Only AAP Professionally backed eBay seller of this product (fresh too)!!
    Our Aquarium Maintenance companies have been using this product since the early 1990s for both Marine and Freshwater Aquariums with excellent results!
    While certainly not a cure all for poor water management (nor is the otherwise excellent
    AAP Wonder Shell
    ), however as part of a water quality management program for your aquarium, this product can make a difference in water clarity and nitrate levels in BOTH Fresh and Saltwater (in fact controlled tests measuring nitrates and water clarity by our Professional aquarium maintenance company in the 1990s proved this).

    Clarifies Water;
    Active compounds clarify dissolved organic and inorganic pollutants, toxins, and odors

    Controls Nitrates;
    Nitrate fixating microorganisms incorporate excess nitrogen into the cellular mass, while bioactive enzymes assimilate nitrogen from the water column.
    Please note that nitrate control is one of AAP's aquarium maintenance company's main reasons for using this product, however our extensive use of AAP Algone has shown that Algone does not bring Nitrates down all that well, but is EXCELLENT at keeping nitrates down (controlling nitrates) once you bring it down via other methods including water changes.

    Purifies Water;
    Enzymes break down proteins, carbohydrates and metabolic waste into insoluble complex structures

    Reef and Plant Safe;
    Trace elements are protected from early precipitation increasing the bio availability for plants, corals, and other organisms

    Works best in low flow areas;
    Results will not be as good when used in high flow filters. Better use is at the base of a Sponge Filter, lift tube or placed in section of a high flow filter that is partly blocked.

    Ingredients;
    Naturally occurring enzymes, tannins, iodine from Barley Straw that floculate bacteria and provide a carbon rich food source for nitrifying & de-nitrifying bacteria.
    The use of Barley straw and extracts there in has been a proven method of water clarification for years by pond keepers.
    Changes in Redox (ORP) by Algone is proof of de-ntrification.
