Got nutrients?

This scrubber crushes all others. My Nitrates were in the 60s for months (phosphates weren't great either) and this scrubber did an amazing job getting everything under control. The design is genius -- you can slide out the tray for cleaning; and the unit either sits on top of your sump or can hang from above depending on your setup (I will include a free custom hanging kit). 3/4" bulkhead inlet on the back, and then dual 1.5" bulkhead drains (one is the drain, one is a backup/emergency drain)

There are two grow lights which can be controlled independently or together to dial in the amount of algae you want to harvest. Running it at night keeps an almost even pH level in the tank all day and night.

I can't say enough good things about this algae / turf scrubber, and I'm happy to show anyone in person what it can do if you're in the Maryland/Virginia/DC area.

$899 takes it home [BRS Link - New is $1300]
