® Fish nitrifying bacteria is designed to provide a biological oxidation of ammonia in fish and prawn / shrimp hatchery pond . Nitrification is the biological or biochemical process in which ammonia is oxidized to nitrite, and nitrite oxidized to nitrate and requires low BOD/COD levels in high dissolve oxygen concentrations.
BIOBUG® Fish nitrifying bacteria is a liquid fermentation product of Nitrobacter spp., Nitrosomonas spp., and other facultative naturally occurring bacteria, which are of the type to help facilitate nitrification/denitrification process under certain conditions that may occur in fish and shrimp hatchery situations.
Nitrification and denitrification are the processes by which nitrogen is cycled within an aquatic ecosystem. Nitrification is an aerobic process where ammonia nitrogen is oxidized to nitrate. Two organisms are primarily responsible for nitrification in aquatic systems. The organism Nitrosomonas is responsible for the conversion of NH3 to NO2. NO2 is then converted to NO3 by the organism Nitrobacter. These organisms have specific requirements for successful nitrification in waste treatment systems. Those requirements are listed below:
pH - Range of 7.0-9.0; 7.8 is optimum
Alkalinity - 7.1 CaCO3/NH3 consumed
Temperature - 45-104º F
Dissolved Oxygen - 4.5 mg 02/ mgNH3
