Next-generation, enhanced activated carbon, offering superior chemical filtration
characteristics to traditional activated carbon.
Triple-action removes ammonia, chloramines, and latent organic material, and then
facilitates decomposition and oxidation/reduction reactions, enhancing oxidation-reduction
potential (ORP), and promoting water quality.
Features high capacity for organic removal, high Iodine number, and minimal dust.
Average particle size encourages optimal flow and effectiveness.
Complete source of the elements and molecules that are directly used by coralline algae, as well as corals, clams, and other reef-building invertebrates
Provides calcium, strontium, magnesium, and potassium in approximately the same ratios* in which they occur in aragonite.
Very strong source of carbonates (derived from aragonite), the other important group of ions involved in aragonite formation.
Increases alkalinity to help stabilize pH.
Stronger than competing products.
May be used as an inexpensive alternative to automated calcium reactor systems with similar results.
Free of phosphate, silicate, and organic material.
Advanced adsorbent of phosphate and silicate; provides rapid results.
May be used on an on-going basis as part of a sensible nutrient-control program.
Spherical shape and porosity maximize reactive surface area; promotes reactivity and
efficiency by maximizing contact time and minimizing tendency to pack and channel water,
and outperforms competing non-spherical phosphate-adsorbent media.
Recommended usage is 2 g of Extrax Phos per 1 US-gallon (3.8 L) in aquarium; 600 grams
will adsorb up to 20 mg/L phosphate in 300 US-gallons (1,136 L).
Does not release phosphate, silicate, or soluble compounds into aquarium system .
Safe for use in all freshwater and marine aquaria, including freshwater planted systems
and reef systems.

• Used in conjunction with MicrōBacter7, establishes and develops biological filtration by providing critical nutrients in specific forms and ratios.
(Note: Not designed to be used with MicrōBacterStart XLM or MicrōBacterClean, use QuikCycl for those products, instead.)
• Ethical and effective; encourages microbial proliferation without the use of poor nutrient sources, such as fish food (rich in refractory organic compounds) and so-called “starter fish”.
• Indirectly benefits corals and other suspension-feeding invertebrates by encouraging reproduction of bacterioplankton (an important food source for those organisms).
• Helps prevent bleaching in zooxanthellate corals.
• Encourages polyp-expansion in corals, anemones, and their allies.
Koral MD Coral Dip does not contain iodine. It is an all natural prophylactic cleaner, dip and conditioner, made from natural plant extracts and oils, for use in cleaning new corals, live rock, and empty coral fragging & holding facilities. It will assist in cleaning corals prior to addition into the aquarium. It will also prevent the transfer of unwanted substances into the aquarium. It will assist in acclimating newly fragmented corals and washing new or damaged corals. It is safe for dipping stony and soft corals, sea anemones, mushroom anemones and zoanthids. It is excellent to use to wipe down or to soak holding facilities or old aquariums for re-use (rinse well after use). This product is not a medication or a household cleaner.
Widely used by professional coral farmers along with CoralAmino and Restor for coloration
Provides numerous elements important to the formation of various biochromes
(biological pigments), complex molecules that give coloration to plant and animal cells
through their selective color-absorption and -reflection characteristics.
Formulated specifically to provide trace quantities of elements for gradual incorporation
into, and formation of, biochromes known to occur within zooxanthellae, such as
chlorophylls a and c, beta carotene, and xanthophylls.
Does not influence population density of zooxanthellae, which would put the overall
health and survival of the host organism in a precarious situation.
Formulated by a marine scientist.

Professional 15x strength powerful live tank starter nitrifying bioculture, with much fewer temperature and shelf life restrictions than competing products, for rapidly cycling new marine fish and reef aquaria and brackish aquariums, and for recovering from overcrowding or disasters where the bacteria bed has been damaged or when adding new fish. It is also quite useful after re-arranging decorations or performing major maintenance, such as cleaning substrates or biological media to “recharge” the nitrifying bacteria population.
Complex system of non-pathogenic aerobic and anaerobic microbes, as well as natural
enzymes, specifically formulated to establish biological filtration in new aquarium set-ups,
and to enhance the rate of nitrification, denitrification, and organic waste degradation in
marine and freshwater aquaria through complete nutrient remineralization.
Reduces nitrates and phosphates
Used the world over for more than 12 years
Veterinarian Pathologist tested
Supplied in a state of suspended animation for maximum longevity.
Formulated utilizing extensive data compiled by microbiologists.
Complex system of non-pathogenic microbes and natural enzymes, specifically formulated to
clean aquarium live rock and decorations.
Best product to use to combat the “ugly stage,” that time right after initial cycling when the tank is starting to season. Prevents much of the ugliness
Extensively-researched and tested over a multi-year period, with a formulation based on current understanding of Marine Chemistry and Marine Biology as they pertain to the husbandry of all marine aquaria (e.g. reef, mixed reef, FOWLR, fish-only, mangrove, sea grass, lagoonal, brackish, etc.)
Precision-formulated to replicate the natural seawater ratios of every major element, as well as all non-conservative minor and trace elements.
Creates a marine environment so chemically-similar to natural seawater in all important respects that aquarium inhabitants are not likely to discern any difference between water prepared with NēoMarine and filtered natural seawater from tropical reef waters.
134 g per 1 US-gallon (3.785 L) of purified water yields a specific gravity of ~1.025 g/cm3, with a pH of ~8.30 and alkalinity of ~7.5 dKH.
Manufactured by Brightwell Aquatics in our production facility (not outsourced) under the strictest standards of quality. Every batch is lot numbered and sampled for quality control.
Utilizes a production process that promotes particle size uniformity and a dry, homogenous salt blend.
Formulated by a marine scientist; not composed of seawater evaporite.
Used in conjunction with MICROBACTER7 and REEF BIOFUEL or KATALYST, enables
natural phosphorus uptake to take place in systems with inadequate nitrogen content,
lowering phosphate concentration without the use of chemical filtration media and without
resorting to polluting the system with organic material to raise the nitrogen content.
Recommended for use by advanced reef aquarists maintaining ultra-low nutrient
content systems, only.
May be used with MICROBACTER7 (selected microbes and enzymes), REEF BIOFUEL
and/or KATALYST (organic carbon source), and NEOPHOS (phosphorus source) to
achieve desired nutrient content in reef aquaria for improved health and coloration of
inhabitants.
