So what are these science-backed products offered by Brightwell Aquatics? Here's a snapshot of a few:

 

Microbacter7

Microbacter7 Complete Bioculture

A specialized blend of aerobic and anaerobic microbes, combined with natural enzymes, designed to establish biological filtration in new aquarium setups. It accelerates the breakdown of organic waste like uneaten food and detritus, promoting a cleaner aquarium. This formulation also reduces harmful compounds like ammonia and nitrite, while increasing oxygen levels and supporting the growth of beneficial organisms. 

 

XPORT Bio brick

X-port-BIO Freshwater Biological Filtration Blocks

Promote efficient bacterial colonization to naturally reduce excess nutrients in all types of aquariums. Suitable for soft or hard freshwater, brackish, and marine systems, this product offers vast aerobic and anaerobic surface areas for efficient bacterial growth, with each 2 inches of block providing approximately 10,000 square feet of usable surface area. It significantly reduces toxic ammonia, nitrites, phosphates, and dissolved organics, helping maintain a healthier aquatic environment.

 

FlorinVolvanit

FlorinVolcanit Rio Escuro-F Substrate

Brightwell FlorinVolcanit is a specialized substrate ideal for planted shrimp tanks. Made from natural volcanic ash particles around 3mm in size, it's perfect for plants, fish, and invertebrates that thrive in slightly acidic, low-general hardness (GH) water conditions. This substrate binds elements that contribute to water hardness, lowering GH and gently acidifying alkaline water to a pH below 7. It promotes strong root systems, enhances nutrient uptake, and maintains well-oxygenated roots.  

 

Remineralize

Remineraliz-P Powder Freshwater Mineral Supplement

Remineralīz is designed to restore essential minerals in purified or very soft water for freshwater and planted tanks. It establishes an optimal mineral balance by providing potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, and other elements crucial for the health and osmoregulation of fish, invertebrates, and aquatic plants. Ideal for recreating breeding environments, it replenishes minerals in systems with infrequent water changes or after large changes. Based on the latest aquatic research, Remineralīz ensures your aquarium's water chemistry supports the needs of its inhabitants effectively.
