Hello everyone,

Our clients kept asking about effective de-nitrators and Nitra-Guard bio cubes kept coming up in conversation. To make a long story short...after a lot of research and some client testing we decided to add this to our in-store and online catalogue. They very effectively remove Nitrates!

The one common positive among everyone was the easy of use...No reactor! These cube perform best when used with the "Bomb Kit (http://www.reefsupplies.ca/boards/nitra-Bomb.pdf)" Here is the PDF link http://www.reefsupplies.ca/boards/nitra-Bomb.pdf.

We tried with a TFL 150 and powerhead running an air hose and let's just say the bomb method is the way to go. Not only is it easy to use, it cost $17!

We offer Nitra-Guard in 3 sizes, 250ml, 500ml and 1000ml. Here are the links to our website, bomb kits are optional.

Are these just cubes of biopellets? Or does it employ some different form of method to reduce nitrate?

They are not bio-pellets.

In theory they will do what bio-pellets or Zeolite's will do but in a much simpler method. We all know that Bio-pellets and Zeolites are great at reducing nutrients but we also know that you need to be on top of things and employ strict maintenance with these products. Nitra-guard makes it a little easier for the masses....and cheaper.

I don't want to post links to other boards here, so you might want to google nitre-guard and check out some of the reviews.

thanks

BIO-Cubes are made from 100% biologically degradable polymers that effectively remove both nitrates and phosphates from both marine and freshwater systems.

That's what biopellets are made up of. So, basically, these are just bigger chucks of biopellets* which can be used in mesh bags. I would say it is convenient for nano tanks :) And saves on the reactor.

*Reasons:
1. Both are made of biodegradable polymers
2. The bio-cubes have to be placed near a skimmer

Same methodology, different names :smile:

What happened to the nitraguard biocubes?

They work great and are really simple to run.

Orca labs, polylab & nitraguard www sites are still running......

Was there a company or product relaunch? Have they been relabelled 'Polylab BioSphere" ?

Any info???

Were they discontinued or are they still being produced?

Well, after some research apparently the product is being relabeled and will hit the shelves next month (they are behind schedule) as Polylab BioSphere.

There is a Canadian Distributer and online seller, PM me if your interested in more info (respecting Reef Supplies forum). I am guessing that Reef Supplies might be selling the new PolyLab BioSpheres.

We will see when the product becomes available.

Sort of...

Soon but not entirely the same product, the PolyLab BioSpheres look like a better product. Testing has been very promising.
