Overview Optimised forPerformance BioReact is an in-sump Bio Reactor, designed for hobbyists. It helps to accelerate the growth of beneficial bacteria, and helps to ensure water clarity. It is ideal to control the Phosphate (PO4) and Nitrate (NO3) level. Powered by our very own and reliable Aquatrance, which is both energy efficient and quiet, the BioReact is easy to set-up and allows you full flow control to the media. With a space saving footprint, it allows you more space within the sump for more products. Made from a high quality cast acrylic body, it has a specially designed water inlet bottom chamber which prevents the media from entering the pump during a power off. A rigid sieve plate at the top cover acts to prevent the pellets from escaping through the outlet connection. Due to the unique design of having no pipe in the middle of the chamber, it is easy to replace the cover after refilling the pellet media. The 4-direction cover also makes it easy for you to orientate the BioReact accordingly to your set-up. For best results, it is highly recommended to use our Bio Spheres media. Bio-Spheres are specifically encapsulated pellets with a 100% pure biological polymer solid carbon. These pellets when use with our Bio -Churn Reactor, will slowly release the polymer carbon within the marine water which will encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria and enzymes on the pellets surface. Bio-Spheres provides a food source required for beneficial bacteria to reproduce and reduce nitrates and phosphates. Available in 500ml or 1000ml bag. Holds 2 liters of BioSphere media.

Initial Care Instructions

Once your coral arrives, float the sealed bag in your aquarium for 15–20 minutes to equalize temperature. Then, begin a drip acclimation process or slowly add small amounts of tank water to the bag every 5 minutes over 30–45 minutes.

2. Inspect and Dip:

Before placing the coral in your tank, inspect it for pests or hitchhikers. We strongly recommend using a coral dip solution to remove potential parasites or algae. Follow the dip instructions carefully and rinse with clean saltwater before introducing to your display.

3. Placement:

Start the coral in a low to moderate light and flow area to help reduce stress. Over the next week, gradually move it to its ideal lighting and flow conditions based on species needs.

4. Monitor Water Parameters:

Ensure stable water parameters (alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, salinity, etc.) and maintain good tank flow. Watch closely for signs of stress or tissue recession and adjust placement if necessary.

5. Patience Pays Off:

Corals often take a few days to fully open up after shipping. Give them time to adjust—avoid sudden lighting changes or overhandling during this period.
