MAR 3181 & MAR 3182

Chaetomorpha algae are bred by many marine aquarists to eliminate nitrates and phosphates from the aquatic biotope. Thus, it is absolutely sufficient to harvest a handful of algae from time to time to maintain the biological balance in an aquarium – an excellent economical and easy alternative to many chemicals or resins!
For this purpose, TUNZE® has developed two special reactors that can be placed in any filter tank or next to an aquarium without external filter technology. The circulation of water in the reactor ensures that the algae culture rotates and reduces the number of light sources.
Scope of delivery: Reactor, LED white eco chic 10 W, circulation pump Silence, silicone hoses.

Expected availability: September 2018.

Corporate philosophy

As the Managing Director of TUNZE® Aquarientechnik GmbH in Penzberg, I would like to welcome you to one of the strongest and best-known trademarks of aquarium technology.
Since its establishment in 1960, TUNZE® has been focussing on providing its customers with high-quality products and thus a unique aquarium experience. We will continue to do everything we can to surprise you and improve water quality in the closed circulation system of an aquarium.

Our vision

A vision statement is an expression of the corporate philosophy and goals of a company. Based on such a vision, state-of-the-art, excellent quality and design pumps were developed from the existing Turbelle® pumps.
Today, quality and environmental compatibility are our major challenges, as a high energy consumption is expensive and harms the environment. Our pumps are developed further continuously in order to keep setting new performance/power consumption standards, i.e. minimum heat transfer to the water and reliability. Internal production processes are also adjusted even more consistently to environmental criteria. Our priorities include reduction of CO2 emissions and optimization of energy efficiency to achieve minimum power consumption.
