Emmanuel Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Was considering whether to get myself a denitrator and was doing a bit of research. Many has claimed it can reduce nitrate significantly but there are also minority mentioning the "difficulty" of kicking it start and the risk of it choking and not forgetting the stability of pH. Wanna know who else is also using it and how this equipment is able to improve the water quality. If I were to get a denitrator, what else must i do in order to do it right ? People who had given up on a denitrator please share your views and opinions as well. What about comparing NP biopellets with denitrator ?

ramspeed Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Put some coral chip at the outlet from the denitrator for the water to drip slowly to resolve the ph issues . As u will need about a month or more to let the denitrator to kick in. Once it kick in u will see the sulphur colour will change to darker tone like orangy yellow . Control the teeoff from the inlet feed if u can get a valve to control the drip freely at the outlet . Or u can join the outlet to a CR if u have one and it will do very well melting the CR media with low ph water from the denitrator to get good calcium ppm happy reefing Quote Mix reef 2x2x2.5 cabin with sump 20x20x18 by marinepets, skimz sk201 ,Skimz FR, solite mh250w with API t5x2x24w blueplus tube n moon lite, korolin CR , aqua medic denitrator, deltec kalk stirrer km 500 with jbj auto top up,ecotech marine mp40 wave maker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
