- Part of a complete system for simplifying and maintaining proper
water chemistry in very small (e.g. “nano”) reef aquaria.
- NanoCōde A provides calcium, potassium, and strontium in
aragonite ratios, enhanced magnesium (relative to the aragonite
ratios), and non-conservative minor* and trace elements in natural
seawater ratios.
- NanoCōde B provides molecules that increase pH stability and form
an integral part of aragonite, the mineral that is secreted by
reef-building organisms.
- Used in conjunction with NanoCōde B, promotes stable water
chemistry and improves rate of biogenic aragonite formation.
- Contains no phosphate, silicate, or organic material.
* Due to the nature of iodide and the manner in which it interacts with
organic material, it is unsuitable for indiscriminate dosing. As such,
iodide is not present in NanoCōde A or B. Regular partial water changes
with a quality salt mix, or direct supplementation with an iodide
solution, will achieve adequate, controlled dosage of iodide in small
reef aquaria.
Instructions
and Guidelines
Basic: Shake bottle well
before using. Add 5 ml (1 capful) of product per 10 US-gallons of
aquarium water daily or as needed to maintain the calcium concentration
within a range of 412 - 450 ppm. Whenused in this fashion, 500 ml
treats up to 1,000 US-gallons (3,785 L). When used in equal amounts
with NanoCōde B, the calcium and carbonates being added are in the same
ratio found in natural seawater. Do not mix NanoCōde A & B in the
same container; this will cause the active components to precipitate
and become ineffective. Allow 60 seconds to pass between dosing
NanoCōde A & B.
Advanced: Determine the
calcium concentration in the aquarium using an accurate test kit before
supplementing. Shake bottle well before each use. Each ml of Brightwell
Aquatics NanoCōde A will increase the concentration of calcium
(“[Ca2+]”) in 1 US-gallon (3.785 L) of water by approximately 11.9 ppm.
If the initial [Ca2+] in the aquarium is below 412 ppm, add this
product at the maximum rate of 5 ml per 10 US-gallons daily until the
desired calcium concentration is attained, then dose daily or weekly as
needed (see below). Note that each aquarium has different requirements
for calcium and carbonates(which largely constitute Alkalinity or
Buffering Capacity, hence pH-stability); therefore, it is not uncommon
for unequal amounts of NanoCōde A & B to be required for obtaining
and maintaining the desired calcium concentration and alkalinity. To
determine the daily dosing rate for calcium maintenance: estimate the
volume of water in the entire aquarium system; divide the daily
decrease in [Ca2+] by 11.9; multiply this number by the volume of water
(US Gallons) in the system to get the daily dosage required (ml) to
maintain a stable [Ca2+].
Caution: May cause eye or skin iritation. Flush with water for 15
minutes if in eyes, seek medical attention if irritation persists. Keep
out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.
