Advanced nitrogen supplement for optimal coral growth
Essential Nitro is much more than just a nitrate-based additive. Its complex and balanced formulation includes several sources of nitrogen, both organic and inorganic: urea, ammonium, amino acids, vitamins
In ultranutrient-low nitrogen (ULNS) reef systems, where nitrate levels are often close to zero, nitrogen quickly becomes a limiting factor . Corals then struggle to grow despite perfect physicochemical conditions. By addressing this deficiency in a controlled and targeted way, Essential Nitro provides the "fuel" necessary for healthy and sustainable growth.
Enriched formula to support colour and vitality
One of the major advantages of ATI Essential Nitro is its visible effect on coral coloration . By stimulating the formation of chromoproteins , this supplement enhances natural pigments and intensifies existing hues. Corals appear brighter, more vibrant, with a particularly noticeable "glow" effect in blue light. And because the formula also contains vitamins and amino acids , it provides overall support for coral metabolism, improving their resistance to stress.
Used regularly, Essential Nitro becomes an effective management tool for anyone looking to stabilize their reef aquarium , especially SPS and Mixed Reef tanks. You'll see well-opened polyps, regular growth, and a visibly more vibrant reef.
Simple dosage and customized adjustment for each container
The recommended base dose is 0.5 ml per 100 liters per day. This dosage can be adjusted according to the specific needs of the tank: population, measured levels, and coral behavior. In all cases, it is advisable to start small and increase gradually, carefully monitoring nitrate and phosphate levels, as well as the corals' reaction.
Essential Nitro integrates perfectly into the ATI Essentials SPS or Mixed Reef system, but can also be used alone as a targeted corrector for a deficient tank. It is particularly useful in ULNS or highly filtered aquariums , where nitrogen is often depleted too quickly.
