Quantum Aqua LR Nitrate Remover

Quantum Reef Essential® LR Nitrate Remover™

Quantum LR Nitrate Remover is a low-range nitrate control formula designed for reef aquariums with nitrate levels under 15 ppm. It delivers a balanced carbon source that supports beneficial denitrifying bacteria, encouraging natural biological conversion of nitrate into nitrogen gas — safely and effectively maintaining ultra-low nutrient conditions in sensitive reef environments.

Key Features & Benefits

• Ideal for reef systems with nitrate concentrations below 15 ppm

• Supports steady, natural nitrate reduction without sudden shifts

• Fuels anaerobic bacteria responsible for denitrification

• Helps maintain pristine water conditions in SPS and mixed reefs

• Free from added nitrogen or phosphate compounds

• Stabilises nutrient levels without harming corals, inverts, or fish

When to Use

Use LR Nitrate Remover only when nitrate levels are consistently below 15 ppm. It is ideal for ultra-low nutrient systems (ULNS) where precision nutrient management is critical to coral coloration, polyp extension, and overall reef health.

System Requirements

• Must be used in tanks with a protein skimmer

• Maintain alkalinity ≥ 7 dKH and pH ≥ 8.2

• Anaerobic zones (such as deep sand beds or porous rock) required for effective denitrification

• Suitable for SPS, LPS, mixed reefs, and FOWLR systems

Dosing Instructions

Dose daily into a high-flow area of the system (e.g., return chamber, sump, reactor inlet).

Per 100 L of aquarium water:

• <5 ppm nitrate: 0.5–1.0 mL/day

• 5–10 ppm nitrate: 1.0–1.5 mL/day

• 10–15 ppm nitrate: 1.5–2.0 mL/day

1 capful = 10 mL
20 drops ≈ 1 mL

Invert bottle 3–4 times before dosing. Do not shake.

Caution

• Do not exceed the recommended dose. Overuse may deplete nitrate too quickly, causing bacterial blooms or destabilised nutrient levels.

• Monitor nitrate weekly using a reliable low-range test kit.

• Not suitable for freshwater systems.
