PhytoTank Macroalgae Reactor-Quick Connect Version
Eliminate phosphate and nitrate from you reef tank using the patented PhytoTank macroalgae reactor. Growing chaeto macroalgae in a PhytoTank is a natural and effective way to remove phosphate and nitrate. Set up the PhytoTank Chaeto reactor by installing a small pump in your sump (do not exceed 250 g/hr) that will pump water from your system, through the reactor and then back into your sump. The Quick Connect fittings accept standard polyethylene tubing with a 1/2 inch outside diameter (not included). The quick connect fittings can be rotated 360 degrees to position the tubing to fit your set-up. When chaeto fills the volume of the PhytoTank remove 75% of it to export the nitrate and phosphate consumed by the macroalgae.
