QUABIT™ SWIM™ DOES IT ALL FOR FISH and FRIEND and FAMILY!

EXPERIMENTAL DATA 

Time Course Changes of  pH, Nitrite/Ammonia and Nitrate (collaboration work with Tokyo Institute of Technology ( National University in Japan)

ABOUT THE DATA

“pH of the conventional aquarium gradually lowers over a month. Whereas pH of the SWIM™ aquarium is the same as the initial pH almost for one year in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums."

IN A GOOD NATURE

Natural mechanism to decompose animal wastes and dead organisms year after year if the environmental condition is sustainable. 

​

1st Stage: Ammonia NH3 (waste) is oxidized to nitrite (NO2-) by microbes with oxygen. NO2- is very toxic and chemically instable and further oxidized to nitrate NO3-.

​

2nd Stage: Nitrate is less toxic and finally reduced by anaerobic bacteria to Nitrogen (N2) and water.

PROCESS: Biological/
Chemical Conversion

Nitrifying and deoxygenating ammonia/fish waste to convert highly toxic nitrite and then lesser toxic nitrates.

PROCESS: Physical/
Chemical Conversion 

Anaerobic bacteria converts nitrates to non-toxic nitrogen. (Oxygen free environment)

PROCESS: Temporally Physical/Chemical/
Mechanical

Charcoal filter functions to remove foreign materials, mal-odor, adsorbing unwanted substances.
