Nano (Mini Reef) Complete

Nano reef tanks (under 20 gallons) and Pico Reef tanks (under 5 gallons) are vey popular due to their lower initial cost set up. However, the smaller the tank the more rapidly water conditions can deteriorate because smaller tanks are less forgiving than tanks holding larger volumes of water. Optimum water conditions are a necessity for nano systems, and that's where Nano Complete comes in. Nano Complete is specially formulated to achieve for small tanks the same kind of results that Reef Complete will for Larger tanks.

INFO

Why use Microbe-Lift Reef & Marine Supplements

Reef keeping is like no other aquarium hobby. It requires an entirely different set of parameters, new equipment to maintain stability and essential vitamins and minerals to thrive under our care. Corals, invertebrates, anemones and special fish placed together will need to maintain a delicate balance.

Sea salt mixes can contain 70 or more of natural salt waters essential and trace components. These help sustain water quality for the fish, corals, invertebrates and macro-algae as nature intended. In an aquarium "closed system", protein skimmers, ozonisers, carbon filters and dynamic bio-chemical processes can reduce the important components, including calcium, strontium, molybdenum, iodide, bromide, iron, vitamins, amino acids and essential trace minerals. Microbe-Lift reef products will replace these components and help maintain the correct pH as well.
