What’s great about this product:

NitraPhos Minus is a unique formula that aims to biologically remove nitrate, nitrite and phosphate from the aquarium. It activates the metabolism in various types of bacteria, which are responsible for the management and removal of excess nutrients. Thanks to the special composition of multiple forms of organic carbon, amino acids and vitamins, all biochemical changes occur without any issues and bacteria easily absorb compounds to convert them into biomass. That biomass becomes a valuable food for corals while the excess and residues of it are removed from water by filter or skimmer. NitraPhos Minus improves the overall condition of corals, provides better colouration and promotes their growth. Due to maintaining the biological balance in the tank it prevents the formation of undesirable green algae and the development of cyanobacteria.


  • Effectively removes excess nitrate & phosphate
  • Brings chemical balance
  • Quickly reduces undesired algae
  • Boosts coral coloration & growth


Recommended dosage:

It is recommended to start NitraPhos Minus at half of the recommended dose. It is recommended to monitor the concentration of NO3 and PO4 once or twice a week. The recommended daily dosage is shown below:

NO3 higher than 10ppm & PO4 higher than 0.2ppm – Dose 3ml per 100L per day

NO3 between 2-10ppm & PO4 between 0.1-0.2ppm – Dose 2-2.5ml per 100L per day

NO3 lower than 2ppm & PO4 higher than 0.03ppm – Dose 1.5mL per 100L per day

NO3 lower than 2ppm & PO4 lower than 0.03ppm – Dose 1mL per 100L per day


Good to know:
  • Low nitrate and phosphate impose rich corals supplementation
  • Inefficient filtration may be the reason for high nitrate & phosphate
  • Too much food or supplements may also be the cause of too high nitrate and phosphate levels
  • A violent drop of nitrate and phosphate levels can destroy zooxanthellae and lead to corals death
