Back again with water issues

But yes it is basically a anaerobic filter in small bags that you either place in a canister filter or in any kind of water flow. I think the mesh is so fine it either allows only a small amount of water through or stops oxygen passing through.

Thanks Foggy! I will look into this for sure.

Ok, where do you buy this?

I'm from the uk so I'm not sure where you can get it from.

The best thing is to go to google and type in jbl bionitratex for sale. Either that or ebay should have it available on there.

As i say they do two products one called nitratex and one bionitratex.

The nitratex you have to regenerate using salt, i tried this but it didn't regenerate for me. Perhaps i used the wrong salt, but it did work well until it needed regenerating.

The bionitratex you just leave in your filter but takes about 4 weeks for the bacteria to grow and to notice your nitrates drop.

If it was me I'd go for for the bionitratex and hope when you do water changes it reduces the nitrates fairly quickly.

I don't know if this is any use but to filter your tap water perhaps this may be of use?

I've never used it but it may be worth looking at.

This is the like to jbl bionitratex

This is a massive thread regarding people's views of using it.

It is certainly a huge read. First of you will notice people are sceptical about it but after people start using it they only get positive results.

I can't find anything here in the States. Not sure what shipping from the UK would be.
