Reef Zlements Z-CarboPlus is a premium liquid carbon supplement designed to enhance biological filtration in reef aquariums. It provides a safe and effective carbon source that supports the growth of beneficial microorganisms, such as bacteria and plankton, which consume excess nitrate (NO₃) and phosphate (PO₄). By promoting this natural nutrient uptake, Z-CarboPlus helps maintain balanced water chemistry, reduces unwanted algae growth, and improves overall water clarity.
Unlike traditional carbon dosing methods using ethanol or vodka, Reef Zlements Z-CarboPlus offers a biologically safe alternative, formulated specifically for marine aquarium environments. This makes it ideal for reef tanks containing sensitive corals, sponges, clams, and other filter-feeders that rely on a stable ecosystem.
The beneficial microbes fueled by Z-CarboPlus form a natural nutrient export pathway by multiplying and then being removed through mechanical filtration or consumed by other reef inhabitants. This not only helps reduce harmful nutrient build-up but also supports a thriving microbial food web, contributing to the health and vitality of your reef.
Key Benefits:
-
Provides a biologically safe and controlled carbon source
-
Supports beneficial microbial populations that consume nitrate and phosphate
-
Helps maintain stable nutrient levels and prevent algae outbreaks
-
Enhances water clarity and overall reef health
-
Compatible with all reef aquarium setups and inhabitants
Usage Instructions:
Begin dosing with 1 ml per 100 litres of aquarium water daily. Monitor nitrate and phosphate levels closely with reliable test kits and gradually increase dosing up to 3 ml per 100 litres if needed to maintain optimal nutrient ranges (e.g., nitrate ~5 ppm, phosphate ~0.04 ppm). Avoid overdosing to prevent imbalances, and adjust doses if nutrient depletion occurs.
Available Sizes: 500 ml, 1 L, 2.5 L, and 5 L, making it suitable for both small nano reefs and large public aquarium systems.
With Reef Zlements Z-CarboPlus, you can confidently optimize your reef’s biological filtration, ensuring a healthy, balanced environment that supports vibrant coral growth and diverse marine life.
