Wet Dry Filters

This short video explains the Nitrogen Cycle. How all steps of the cycle are necessary to stabilize water purity in an aquarium

• Livestock produces ammonia
• Nitrosomonas bacteria feeds on ammonia and produces nitrite
• Nitrobacteria feeds on nitrite and convert nitrate into nitrogen
• Plant life feeds on nitrogen and produce oxygen and carbohydrates

Understanding the fundamental steps will aid in placing the correct equipment in circulation, and promote stable and long lasting aquatic life in your tank!

This video covers all the bases of what a Wet dry filter is supposed to accomplish and shows how each piece of equipment in the set up integrates the corresponding elements of the Nitrogen Cycle.
