AquaForest -NP Pro 10–50 ml
Probiotic Medium for Effective NO3 & PO4 Management
AquaForest -NP Pro is a specialized probiotic medium designed for reef aquariums using Pro Bio S. Its biodegradable liquid polymers provide an effective carbon source that supports the growth and reproduction of beneficial probiotic bacteria.
By encouraging probiotic bacterial activity, -NP Pro helps manage unwanted nitrates (NO3) and phosphates (PO4) while supporting a healthier nutrient balance within the reef aquarium. The resulting bacterial biomass can also serve as a natural food source for corals.
Unlike conventional polymer-based systems, -NP Pro does not require a specialized flow filter, making it simple to incorporate into a suitable reef aquarium filtration routine.
Key Features
- Probiotic medium designed for reef aquariums.
- Provides a biodegradable liquid carbon source for probiotic bacteria.

- Helps reduce unwanted nitrate (NO3) and phosphate (PO4) levels.
- Supports improved organic matter distribution within the aquarium.
- Works particularly well when used together with AquaForest Pro Bio S.
- Helps convert unwanted nutrients into bacterial biomass.
- Bacterial biomass can provide a natural food source for corals.
- Does not require a specialized flow filter.
- Suitable for both manual dosing and dosing pumps.
Benefits
Supports NO3 & PO4 Control
Elevated nitrate and phosphate levels can contribute to undesirable algae and cyanobacteria growth and may negatively affect coral coloration. -NP Pro provides the carbon source needed by probiotic bacteria to help process these nutrients.
Supports Coral Colouration
By helping manage excessive nitrate levels and maintaining a more suitable nutrient environment, regular use of -NP Pro can support healthier coral growth and coloration.
Provides Natural Coral Nutrition
When used with Pro Bio S, unwanted nitrates and phosphates can be incorporated into bacterial biomass. This bacteria can then become available to corals as a natural food source.
Encourages Beneficial Bacteria
The biodegradable polymers in -NP Pro provide an accessible carbon source that helps beneficial probiotic bacteria develop and multiply.
Simple Filtration Integration
Unlike traditional polymer-based filtration methods, -NP Pro does not require a dedicated flow filter, making it easier to incorporate into reef aquarium maintenance.
How to Use
For best results, dose -NP Pro together with AquaForest Pro Bio S.
Manual Dosing
Dose:
1 drop per 100 L (27 US gal) of aquarium water daily.
Dosing Pump
For a 2,000 ml dosing container:
5 ml per 100 L (27 US gal) of aquarium water daily.
Monitor aquarium nutrient levels regularly and adjust your dosing routine according to the needs of your system.
Storage
After opening, store -NP Pro in the refrigerator if the ambient temperature exceeds 24°C (75°F).
Important Handling Information
Do not overtighten the screw cap, as excessive force may damage the cover.
