Nitrites (NO2) and nitrates (NO3) are harmful to the aquatic environment and are produced through biological decomposition of waste from fish, invertebrates, corals, and food residues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmmonia, formed at the beginning of the nitrogen cycle, is converted into nitrites by \u003cem\u003eNitrosomonas\u003c\/em\u003e bacteria (also present in Haquoss DM2 Alive). Nitrites are then converted into nitrates by \u003cem\u003eNitrobacter\u003c\/em\u003e bacteria (also contained in Haquoss DM2 Alive). Unlike earlier stages, nitrates are not further processed and therefore accumulate in the aquarium, requiring removal through water changes, substrate cleaning, and the use of Haquoss M4 – Nitrapur Marine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe presence of nitrates indicates that the nitrogen cycle is functioning correctly and that the filter is mature. However, excessive nitrate levels promote algae growth and contribute to phosphate accumulation. The recommended nitrate level in marine aquariums is 5 to 10 mg\/L (ideally 5 mg\/L in reef systems with corals).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo control nitrate levels:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerform water changes of 10 to 15% at least twice a month using Haquoss DM1 Conditioner and Haquoss DM2 Alive\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the filter once a week\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the substrate once a month\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintain proper daily feeding amounts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse Haquoss M4 – Nitrapur Marine consistently when nitrate levels begin to rise\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDOSAGE: Test nitrate (NO3) levels before use.

If the reading is at the maximum, the actual value may be significantly higher. In such cases, continue treatment until nitrate levels are reduced to the target range of 5 to 10 mg\/L.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"36 Green LLP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52034223636763,"sku":null,"price":41.65,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1016\/0803\/0491\/files\/LumiFragApex_149_1e483d6b-7eb0-48b2-a29a-79ebf4ad77d4.png?v=1776831675","url":"https:\/\/36green.com\/products\/haquoss-m4-nitrapur-marine-250ml","provider":"36 Green","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
