Nitrospira MK2: The Solution for Nitrifying Biological Filters

Nitrospira MK2 is the next generation of nitrifying bacteria products, designed to establish efficient biological filtration systems in aquatic environments containing live strains of nitrifying bacteria. This advanced formulation ensures rapid startup of biological filters with minimal downtime, making it an ideal choice for aquaculture systems and aquariums alike.

This powerful product contains live strains of nitrifying bacteria that work synergistically to convert ammonia to nitrite and nitrite to nitrate, effectively jumpstarting the nitrogen cycle. Enhanced with multiple species of Bacillus bacteria, Nitrospira MK2 also assimilates organic waste and includes probiotics to improve water quality while reducing disease risks through competitive exclusion.

Key Benefits of Nitrospira MK2:

  • Dual-action Nitrification: Combines strains for ammonia and nitrite conversion in a single solution.
  • Freshwater & Saltwater Compatibility: Delivers outstanding results in diverse aquatic systems.
  • Probiotic Support: Reduces the risk of disease and enhances system water quality.
  • Filter Adhesion: Contains adhesive nitrifying bacteria for long-term effectiveness.
  • Ammonia & Nitrite Reduction: Prevents harmful spikes in new systems.

What’s Inside Each Bottle? Live strains of nitrifying bacteria:

  • Nitrosospira: Converts ammonia to nitrite.
  • Nitrospira: Converts nitrite to nitrate.
  • Waste-assimilating bacteria: Kickstarts the nitrogen cycle.
  • Probiotic strains: Improve water clarity and reduce pathogen risks.

Recommended Application Rates:

Standard Concentration:

  • Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS): 50 ml per 1,000 litres.

Super Concentrate (1-litres bottles):

  • RAS: 50 ml per 5,000 litres.

For optimal results:

  • Apply a follow-up dose at 50% strength on day 14.
  • Use 50%-100% doses after cleaning or water changes to maintain stability.
  • Periodic dosing introduces new microbial diversity and revitalises aged bio-filters.

Nitrospira MK2 is the ultimate solution for aquaculture professionals and aquarium enthusiasts seeking reliable biological filtration with superior water quality.
