Aquaforest NitraPhos Minus
NitraPhos Minus is a unique formula designed to biologically remove nitrate, nitrite, and phosphate from the aquarium. It activates the metabolism of various types of bacteria responsible for managing and removing excess nutrients. The special composition includes multiple forms of organic carbon, amino acids, and vitamins, enabling smooth biochemical changes. Bacteria easily absorb these compounds and convert them into biomass. This biomass serves as valuable food for corals, while excess residues are filtered out by the aquarium filter or skimmer.
NitraPhos Minus improves coral health, enhances coloration, and supports coral growth. By maintaining biological balance in the tank, it helps prevent the formation of unwanted nutrient buildup.

FAQ
How does NitraPhos Minus work in the aquarium?
NitraPhos Minus activates beneficial bacteria that metabolize nitrate, nitrite, and phosphate. The organic carbon, amino acids, and vitamins in the formula support bacterial growth and help convert excess nutrients into biomass, which is then removed by filtration systems.
Can NitraPhos Minus be used with other water treatment products?
Yes, NitraPhos Minus can be used alongside other aquarium treatments. However, it is recommended to avoid combining it with chemical-based nutrient removers to prevent interference with bacterial activity.
Does NitraPhos Minus affect coral health directly?
No, it does not directly affect coral health. Instead, it improves coral condition indirectly by reducing nutrient buildup and providing a stable biological environment through increased bacterial biomass.
