Has anyone else used or heard anything (good or bad) about the Aquaripure denitrator?

Yikes!!!

Those puppies aren't cheap are they?

I haven't heard about them one way nor the other. In theory, it seems that it would be more efficient than a sulpher-based denitrator but I don't know anything about this unit. Sorry.

Over priced black box. There are more effective approaches to denitrification.But, unless you have a new tank,very little live rock,or too many fish in your tank; you should not need a separate dentrification system. The tank should balance itself out and have zero nitrates with time.

This German article is a good read and should give you some ideas for a better approach if you do want to build a separate denitrifier. http://216.239.39.104/translate_c?hl...UTF-8%26sa%3DG
