When this occurs, bacteria and other organisms can't properly metabolize the excess nutrients, and carbon dosing alone is not enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to restore the proper ratio of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in these aquariums, it may be necessary to provide additional elements along with the carbon source. NP-Bacto-Balance is a unique solution that can help to stabilize nitrates and phosphates at the lowest possible levels while avoiding a nutrient deficiency. With its balanced composition of carefully selected organic and inorganic nutrients, NP-Bacto-Balance acts to reduce nitrate and phosphate while improving coloration and growth of corals, sponges and other filter feeders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEfficient reduction of nitrate and phosphate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIncreased skimmer efficiency\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaintains optimal ratio of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBacterial biomass acts as nutrient source for filter feeders\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePrevents situations of nutrient deficiency\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eImproves the coloration and growth of corals and other inverts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for aquariums of all ages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMature tanks can be significantly revived\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDose manually or with a dosing pump\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Empire Corals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52688592109847,"sku":"S720","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/2746\/7287\/files\/si_1152_enhanced_20260313_191103_esprmy_886e76db-664c-4058-a423-e79398f316ea.png?v=1778021184","url":"https:\/\/empirecorals.com\/products\/tropic-marin-np-bacto-balance-500ml","provider":"Empire Corals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
