[QUOTE="sixty_reefer, post: 10355955, member: 111216"] Both products stimulate the same bacteria the only difference is that the liquid form they also add artificial nitrogen and phosphorus this allows the end user to be able to run a ultra low nutrient system without bottoming out nutrients. The pellets are designed in a different way and will bottom out nutrients unless you add phosphates separately to avoid bottoming out phosphates that in your will not allow the bacteria to assimilate carbon and phosphates. for low nutrient you only use the liquid form as organic n and p becomes limited in high nutrients the situation is fairly different, that’s why I thought the situation is strange it’s fairly hard to bottoming out nutrients wile using the liquid form only. They all target different types of nutrients. Heterotrophic bacteria will assimilate inorganic nutrients and coral and other autotrophic organisms will assimilate and use organic nutrients better than inorganic [/QUOTE]
