However, the introduction of the ARID (Algae Remediation Illuminated Device) the original, patented macroalgae reactor by Pax Bellum is a quantum leap forward. This ingenious device utilizes macroalgae (specifically Cheatomorpha) to function as a tuneable nutrient export mechanism. The unique design of the ARID incorporates a coaxial LED light tube to maximize light penetration and efficiency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Much like other forms of media, water is flowed through the reactor.

As water passes over the algae, specific nutrients, such as phosphate and nitrate, are pulled out of the water and into the growing algae.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eUltimately, the design and functionality of this system allows precise nutrient control. Moreover, since its chamber is sealed from atmospheric gases, it effectively maintains healthy CO2 and organics levels.\" - Reef Hacks\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFISH WASTE -\u0026gt; CHAETO CONSUMES -\u0026gt; NO3, PO4 REMOVED -\u0026gt; NO MORE NUISANCE ALGAE\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy PAX BELLUM?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe platforms and pillars inside the reactor are made from plastics which also serve as a known plant hormone further fuelling growth\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe heat sink is truly state of the art, vacuum sealed and containing a small amount of working vaporizing fluid so you can literally run the PAX dry and never risk burning your LED's\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe LED's are precisely measured for the perfect spectrum for growth of chaetomorpha algae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe unit is wrapped in a light proof casing for zero light spill and maximum power directed into the unit for extreme efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe water inlet is positioned directly in the middle of the heatsink for a perfect 360 degree water flow around every cm of growing algae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Flow Rates:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClick and download table below\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0266\/9405\/8028\/files\/pax_e27104f1-cf21-4380-83e7-3d4f3feb1c7b.png?v=1603627230\" title=\"pax bellum best use guide dalua\" target=\"_blank\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0266\/9405\/8028\/files\/pax_e27104f1-cf21-4380-83e7-3d4f3feb1c7b.png?v=1603627230\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0266\/9405\/8028\/files\/pax_480x480.png?v=1603627202\" alt=\"\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0266\/9405\/8028\/files\/pax_480x480.png?v=1603627202\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pax Bellum","offers":[{"title":"N18","offer_id":39248273834173,"sku":"COURIER_PB-N18","price":1049.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"N24","offer_id":39248273866941,"sku":"COURIER_PB-N24","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"C30","offer_id":39248280912061,"sku":"COURIER_PB-C30","price":3599.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"C36","offer_id":39248285106365,"sku":"COURIER_PB-C36","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0086\/8774\/7127\/products\/PAXFAM_2000x_51a86d23-e64d-4d30-8ab2-97987a1bedba.jpg?v=1614166307","url":"https:\/\/valleyreef.com.au\/products\/pax-bellum-arid-reactor","provider":"ValleyReef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
