DE*NITRATE-NITRATE REMOVAL BY SEACHEM( DIRECTIONS) FOR BEST RESULTS DE*NITRATE SHOULD BE PLACED TO ASSURE THE FLOW OF WATER THROUGH IT , SUCH AS IN A CANISTER FILTER, CHEMICAL FILTRATION MODULE,OR BOX FILTER. FLOW RATE SHOULD NOT EXCEED 200L (50 GALLONS) PER HOUR. IF RATE ARE UNAVOIDABLE,USE MATRIX,.IT IS BEST TO RINSE OFF DUST BEFORE USE,ONCE DE*NITRATES HAS BEEN IN USE FOR SEVERAL DAYS, NITRATE CONCENTRATIONS SHOULD START TO FALL AND LEVEL OFF GRADUALLY AT A CONCENTRATION OF ABOUT 4-5 MG/L AS NITRATE. AS LONG AS NITRATE CONCENTRATIONS REMAIN UNDER CONTROL, THE PRODUCT IS NOT EXUASTED. EACH 1 L OF DE*N TREATS ABOUT 200-400L (50-100)GALLONS DEPENDING ON INITAIL NITRATE CONCENTRATION AND THE CURRENT BIO LOAD. ENOUGH SHOULD BE USED TO REMOVE NITRATE AT A RATE AT LEAST AS FAST AS THE RATE OF FORMATION(TAKE IT SLOW AT FIRST JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE).IF VERY HIGH NITRATES ARE INITIALLY PRESENT , THEY SHOULD BE BROUGHT DOWN TO LESS THAN 20MG/L WITH WATER CHANGES. ITS VERY INPORTANT NOT TO JUST USE TAP WATER BECAUSE OF THE HIGH SEDIMENTS AND OR AMMONIA PRESENT AND TO WEEKLY OR BYE WEEK WATER CHANGES TO LOWER .WHAT I DID WAS FOLLOWED DIRECTS PUT DE* IN CANISTER FILTER TURNED TO LOWEST VOLUME ALSO RINSED YOU MITE WANT TO BUY SOME OF THE LITTLE NET BAGS TO ASSURE NONE FLYING AROUND IN THE AQUARIUM AND REPLACE AS YOU WOULD YOUR CHARE ONCE A MONTH .(REPEAT) SLOWLY DO THIS PROCESS ADD A SMALL AMOUNT INTO BAG WOULD SAY IN MY 30 GALLON I HAD A 8IN BAG (HIGHT)4IN (WIDTH)EST ABOUT 25% OF WAS FILLED HOPEFULLY THIS CAN HELP . :toothy12: O YEA THE PRICE IS 19.99 FOR THE BOTTLE THAT TREATS 100 GALLONS.WORKED GREAT FOR ME CURRENT LEVELS ARE 0PPM IN MY TANK
