• Effectively controls nitrite & nitrate by eliminating ammonia with groundbreaking Hydro-Pure technology

  Not sure anyone heard of this product before, was recommend to buy this product for a filtration system. I've only use this product for my 2 feet tank and thinking to use it for my up coming 5 ft tank. Reading the pros and cons it was known to replace skimmer.

Personally as a reefer I would have done many research regarding the equipment and there's an old thread about it which consist only 3 posts
http://www.sgreefclub.com/forum/topic/120314-review-on-ocean-free-hydra-stream/
I don't wish to revive an old thread asking about his/her experience on it so far on the product.

Any one that use this product before please let reply to this thread to let us know does it do what it say it does? 

Of course myself I would update a review on this base on my 2 feet. >:)
Review are very important to allow reefer like us to know what is efficient and what is cost saving.

Well i'm pretty sure this product is out there for few years surely some of you bro have try it before.
Thanks for reading. 

Cant find online booklet about its function so for those who want know more about it you can hear this old man talking

Look like a good additional to external filter..

Wonder how much is the retail price ?

[Jimmy75]

well, time will tell if this product will be the "next big thing" as claimed in their video. i will still stick to my proved filtration methods.

Not an easy question to answer but most of us agree that Hydra is most effective when used to supplement your existing system. I'm currently running a Hydra only system but it's more of a trial for me and some bros here.

Expert will say yes, I would say Yes too (im not expert).

Because Skimmer provide oxygen  (air circulation) and also bring out protein even before it turning into nitrates. 

Lastly skimmer works well with biopellet or any other carbon compound. So i would say yes.

I'm am looking for more feedback to rate this product. Feel free to comment !

I also just accquired hydra recently as well.. Will see how it runs and see the progress.. It was been recommended to run with skimmer first than slowly fully switch over if wanted to.

Willy

How come your tank is in toilet ??

[Guest]

Qt bro haha. Testing stuff that time

[JMW]

For those who live in landed property or have space, actually can do display tank in toilet..

I think it is the ultimate dream for reefer, can you imagine you doing your business & can stare at the swaying corals & swimming fish?

[david.wong.56232]

I agree with JMW tt putting a reef in toilet is verily gd bcos when u do biz u will hv nice music and nice swaying corals to help with bowel motion....hoping to setup one soon in my toilet...at the moment using candy crush but seems like it only make my sai stay inside longer nia

[Guest]

What????? HAHAHAHA that toilet doesn't even have a bowl what you guys thinking it's more easy to drain water to the hole that's why it's ok the toilet. I'm pretty sure many resident have their fresh water tank in toilet too haha.
