Sochting Oxydator D

solution not included

Söchting Oxydator D, produces normal and active oxygen through a process using H202 (hydrogen peroxide) solution with a special ceramic catalyst. Has been known to release harmful and decomposing substances within water, and improving water quality.increasing oxygen within aquarium, Contributing to the well being of shrimps fish and aquatic plants. Sold with catalysts and oxidator chamber. Solution Sold Separately.

From the manufacturer: "Using a patented method, Söchting Oxydators produce normal and activated oxygen in the aquarium by means of Oxydator solution and special ceramic catalysts.  The activated oxygen decomposes particularly putrid matters and toxicants and, thus essentially improves the well-being of fish and plants.  Pure oxygen created by the Söchting Oxydator is mostly immediately dissolved in the water, so that there are hardly any bubbles produced.  The oxygen supply is absolutely noiseless, expelling of CO2 and swirling of ground elements is avoided."

In other words, the Oxydator dispenses pure oxygen into the aquarium water, slowly and continuously over time, giving your inhabitants all the benefits of increased levels of dissolved oxygen.  Without an Oxydator, good water circulation and regular partial water changes, the level of dissolved oxygen in your aquarium is falling due to the normal metabolic processes of your aquatic life.  The Oxydator is "replacing" the oxygen that's being consumed and, as an additional benefit, it's maximizing the oxygen available for your aerobic bacteria (you must still do regular partial water changes to remove end-stage nitrates and for other purposes, of course).
