- 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 alkalinity within a
range of 7 - 12 dKH. When used in this fashion, 500 ml treats up to
1,000 US-gallons (3,785 L). When used in equal amounts with NanoCōthe
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 alkalinity in the aquarium using an
accurate test kit before supplementing. Shake bottle well before each
use. Each ml of Brightwell Aquatics NanoCōde B will increase the
alkalinity in 1 US-gallon (3.785 L) of water by approximately 1.67 dKH
(0.60 meq/L). If the initial alkalinin the aquarium is below 7 dKH (2.5
meq/L), add this product at the maximum rate of 5 ml per 10gallons
daily until the desired alkalinity is attained, then dose daily or
weekly as needed (see beloNote 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 calciuconcentration and
alkalinity. To determine the daily dosing rate for alkalinity
maintenance: estimate tvolume of water in the entire aquarium system;
divide the daily decrease in alkalinity by 1.67 (when measuring
alkalinity by dKH; divide by 0.06 when measuring meq/L); multiply this
number by the volume of water in the system to get the daily dosage
required (ml) to maintain a stable alkalinity.
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.
