Tropical aquariums demand constant care and maintenance. Food leftovers, waste and algae pollute the water and endanger the health of tropical fish. The amount of maintenance effort required, algae and fish mortality are the main reasons for people giving up the hobby. The maintance and know-how required are a big discouragement to potential aquarium hobbyists.

The Philips tropical aquarium purifier keeps aquarium water clean and fish healthy.

Crystal clear water for up to 150 days.

Minimal maintenance: water needs to be changed only 2 times a year.
Reduces growth of algae spores.
Prevents toxic nitrite peaks and stimulates the nitrogen cycle in water.
Fish can be put in after just 3 days (without the purifier it take 2-3 weeks)
Prevents cross-contamination by viruses and bacteria
Takes just 5 minutes to install, for 150 days of the aquarium enjoyment.

Ozone is an unstable compound of 3 oxygen atoms and has a strong oxidising action. It reacts with almost any organic component to reach a stable form. That is why ozone in an aquarium will:

Dissolve ammonium.
Break down toxic nitrite into nitrate.
Break down fish excrements and convert them into harmless nitrate.
Dissolve carbon compounds (reduces the growth of algae)



Saw this in my LFS today. Don't know if this is going to be any use in planted aquaria based on that last point???
