 <\/p>\n

The biological reduction of algae nutrients (nitrate and phosphate) occurs naturally in all anoxic areas of the aquarium, such as inside live rocks, porous filter media, and substrates.<\/span>
\nRed Sea\u2019s nutrients management program boosts and controls these natural processes by the regular measured dosing of<\/span> NO3<\/sub>: PO4<\/sub>-X<\/a>; a bacteria enhancing supplement, monitored by the use of highly accurate test kits.<\/span>
\nThe nutrients management program provides an easy and reliable method to control algae nutrient levels, which reduces the presence of nuisance algae and the population of the symbiotic zooxanthellae algae which are essential for most corals.
