Aquavitro Biogen 450 ml
Aquavitro Biogen is a carbon-based biopolymer (PHA) that reduces nitrate and phosphate levels in aquarium water. It helps improve coral coloration and reduces unwanted coating on aquarium rocks and decorations. This product works best when used in a fluidized bed reactor with a continuous water flow to keep the beads active.
How It Works
Biogen supports the growth of both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, which begin to colonize the beads within 2 to 4 weeks. These bacteria help break down harmful nitrates and phosphates, promoting a cleaner and healthier aquatic environment.
Usage
- Use in a fluidized bed reactor with consistent water flow
- Ensure beads remain active by maintaining proper water flow
- Replace every 6 to 12 months or when performance declines

FAQ
How long does it take for Biogen to start working?
It typically takes 2 to 4 weeks for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria to colonize the beads and begin breaking down nitrates and phosphates.
Can Biogen be used in all types of aquariums?
Biogen is best suited for marine aquariums with coral systems and should be used in a fluidized bed reactor with continuous water flow.
Is maintenance required after installation?
Yes, the beads should be kept active with a consistent water flow. Replace every 6 to 12 months or when performance declines.

I’ve used Biogen in my 120-gallon reef tank for six months. The coral colors have become much brighter and I no longer see the white coating on rocks. The system runs smoothly with my reactor and the water parameters have stabilized.
Jonathan Dickens –
After installing Biogen, I noticed a clear drop in phosphate levels. It took about three weeks for the bacteria to establish, but now my tank looks cleaner and the fish are more active.

The product works well in my fluidized bed setup. I’ve seen a noticeable improvement in water clarity and less algae growth. It’s a reliable addition to my maintenance routine.
