Save Time and Money,
Eliminate Nitrates, Control Algae, and Reduce Maintenance all at
once!
An Aquaripure Nitrate Filter will
greatly reduce the need for water changes in your fish
tanks, saving you time, money, and reducing
the stress on your aquarium fish.
What is an
Aquaripure Filter?
The Aquaripure filter is a comprehensive biological filter
which will completely remove all organic matter and
nitrates in an Aquarium. This type of filter is also known
as a denitrator, denitrifier, biodenitrator, anaerobic
biological filter, or simply a nitrate filter. Other biological filters only convert organic matter
into nitrates which then accumulate in the aquarium, physical
filters only remove larger particulate matter, and skimmers do not remove
any nitrates. The Aquaripure uses beneficial bacteria
to break down invisible organic matter and nitrates completely
into Nitrogen gas which then escapes into the atmosphere.
This same process is even used by some water treatment plants to
make wastewater safe for human consumption and to clean polluted
water. The Aquaripure does this in an extremely safe and
controlled environment and after the water from the Aquaripure
is aerated there is nothing left but pure, clean, crystal clear
water. Don't just take our word for it, read some of our
customers actual
testimonials.
How can an Aquaripure save me money?
The Aquaripure will greatly reduce
water changes. As an example lets use a 29 gallon
freshwater planted tank and a 180 gallon saltwater reef tank.
For the freshwater planted tank, if your tap water is hard or
alkaline then it shouldn't be used for water changes and you
would have to buy distilled water (that has pH of 7) for about
$1 a gallon. It would take at least 30 minutes a week for
a 35% water change on the FW tank if weekly water changes were
kept up. On the saltwater reef tank you would have to use
salt which costs at least $0.35 a gallon and that's just using
plain old tap water. If you use R/O water the costs go up a lot
more. The saltwater tank would take at least 2 hours total
to mix drain and refill and get everything back where it was
with a 35% water change.
Soo ... If you did a 35% weekly water change on both tanks it would take 120+ hours per year. Even at minimum wage
that would be at least worth $800+. The freshwater tank would
cost (29 x .35 x 52 x $1) = $528 in distilled water and the
saltwater tank would cost (180 x .35 x 52 x $0.35) = $1147 in
salt. So the total cost would be at least $2475 a year.
With Aquaripure nitrate filters you could only do water change
about once every 3 months so that's a savings
of well over $2150!.
What makes
Aquaripure the best?
Don't be
fooled by the cheap nitrate removal
products. These are simply a tiny
band-aid on a large and permanent problem.
You will need to buy them over and over
again and they are not a good value.
Only a specialized nitrate filter like
Aquaripure can provide permanent and
complete nitrate reduction. And
unlike other similar nitrate filters,
Aquaripure filters use proprietary and
patent pending technology to maximize it's
efficiency and effectiveness.
Aquaripure filters all have a tremendous
internal surface area for denitrifying
bacteria to grow and thrive, much more than
any "coil" denitrator or the other
competition. For example, it would
take more than ten "coil" type nitrate
filters to equal the nitrate removing
power of an X-Large Aquaripure.
Moreover, many other
nitrate filters are vastly overrated
in terms of their capacity.
In "sulfur" nitrate filters the effluent contains large
amounts of H2SO4, sulfuric acid, and SO4,
sulfate. You must have a separate reactor with carbonate
to neutralize the acid. The resulting effluent is still very
high in sulfates and they will accumulate in the tank.
According to the
Environmental Protection Agency,
high sulfates in drinking water can cause laxative effects.
It is possible that it may also have adverse effects in the
aquarium, especially on sensitive fish. Also, the costly
sulfur and carbonate media must periodically be replaced.
None of this is an issue with Aquaripure filters. With Aquaripure, no
sulfuric acid or sulfates are produced and nothing will ever
need to be replaced.
The chemical reaction in the
Aquaripure
produces
10 CO2 + 6 N2
+ 26 H2O
Water and Carbon Dioxide versus
Sulfuric Acid and Sulfates.
Which would you prefer in your
aquarium?
Aquaripure filters utilize the only highest quality
tubing, valves, and connections. You will not find
any cheap parts on an Aquaripure
filter. Aquaripure filters are also
"pre-populated" with more beneficial bacteria
than ever to start working fast. Unlike other
nitrate removal products, the
Aquaripure is designed to be
safe, extremely easy to use, require little
maintenance, and completely remove nitrates
for many, many years.

Why is removing Nitrates so important?
All animals
including fish produce ammonia and other
organic waste products which are turned into
nitrites and then nitrates by bacteria.
The fact is that in any mature aquarium high
nitrates are the primary reason to do frequent
water changes. Nitrates are less toxic
than ammonia or nitrites, but they are still
toxic to humans, animals and fish and are a
primary cause of water pollution. For
example, the
US
Environmental Protection Agency's maximum allowable nitrates in
tap water is only 10 parts per million.
Nitrates are also the primary cause of
unwanted algae growth in an aquarium. For a more

Can I use it with fresh and saltwater
fish tanks?
YES! The
Aquaripure can be used with all
freshwater tropical fish aquariums and
saltwater aquariums including coral reef
tanks and freshwater planted tanks. It
is completely harmless to all freshwater and
marine aquarium fish. All any
aquarium really needs for great water
quality is good water flow, a little
mechanical filtration, and an Aquaripure
filter.
How big are Aquaripure's denitrators?
The
Small Aquaripure
is 18.5 cm x 24.75 cm x 37 cm (width x depth
x height.) The
Medium Aquaripure
is 18.5 cm x 24.75 cm x 62.25 cm. The
Large Aquaripure
is 18.5 cm x 43.75 cm x 62.25 cm. The
X-Large Aquaripure
is 23 cm x 30.5 cm x 75 cm.
They can be easily be hidden underneath or
behind almost any tank setup.
Will I ever have to do water changes
again?
Aquaripure's
filters are
designed to completely eliminate nitrates
even in fairly well stocked tanks that accumulate
nitrates at a rate of up to 25-30 ppm (parts
per million) a week. It
will not affect the levels of trace
elements and absolutely no harmful
substances will accumulate as a result of
the Aquaripure. However, we
recommend doing a partial water change
occasionally just to ensure a proper balance
of all trace elements in the aquarium.
Do I have to change anything or add
anything to the Aquaripure?
Unlike other
filters in which you have to replace the
internal media, you will never have to
change anything on the Aquaripure.
There are no filters to change and no mess
to deal with. There is a "feeding"
tube on all of Aquaripure's filters that is
very easy to use. You simply inject
sugar water or alcohol into the Aquaripure
once a week. Feeding and adjusting the
Aquaripure only costs pennies and will only
take seconds of your time.
Aquaripure's filters
are designed to be easy to setup and
maintain, and will give you many years of
service.
