Highly efficient in fresh water
Previous Protein Skimmers designed for use in salt water are not efficient in fresh water. They are restricted by the lower density of the fresh water which limits the ability to form small enough bubbles with enough surface area to attract the organic waste. Since Clarity is based on an entirely different approach it doesn’t have this limitation. This results in a superb efficiency also in fresh water and opens up many exciting application areas.
Regulates the level of oxygen in water
During the process of feeding fish and decomposition of organic matter, the level of oxygen in the water is decreased. Such an environmental change is not desirable for the fish and results in an increased stress level and unhealthy conditions. Clarity’s mode of operation restores the balance of oxygen in the water as part of the process of making the foam.
Breaks down ammonia and nitrite to nitrate before foaming
As the water trickles down the airing tower, bacteria fastened to bio-rings decompose organic compounds to simpler, less toxic substances. The most important example of this process is the breakdown of ammonia to nitrite and eventually nitrate. This lowers the toxicity of the compounds and results in a more effective removal of organic compounds.
Compatible with ozone treatment
Ozone treatment can be combined with Clarity, which results in stable water conditions in spite of great variations in the quality of the incoming water.
