Iodide is a critical element for the health and formation of soft tissue in invertebrates (such as gorgonians, sarcophytons, etc). It has also been shown to be critical for the development of pigments in corals, corallimorpharia, and anemones, both the golden brown of zooxanthellae and the green and red colors of accessory pigments.
Most iodide supplements on the market are simply potassium iodide. When added to an aquarium environment, iodide becomes unstable converting to elemental iodine (which is biocidal) and iodate (which is useless to corals, toxic at elevated levels, and can't be tested for). Iodide is the only form of iodine available to corals for uptake. Because of this instability, iodide must be stabilized for aquarium use.
vibrance™ is a highly concentrated (10,000 mg/L) naturally stabilized potassium iodide source for reef aquaria that will restore and maintain iodide levels to those found in natural sea water. Our proprietary stabilization process makes vibrance™ the most stable iodide supplement available. It's also the most concentrated and comes with a pipette for precision dosing. It is formulated to provide a safe source of iodide that will not convert to toxic free iodine under storage or reef conditions.

Product Description
Live fish can be very sensitive to all sorts of diseases and bacteria, which reside in your fish tank. How do you protect your fish from all these bacteria and diseases ? Blue Planet Aquari-Cycline tablets.
Aquari-Cycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic in tablet form, effective against a wide range of bacterial infections in fresh and saltwater aquariums. Formulated specifically for aquarium use with inert carriers which dissolve rapidly upon contact with water. The active constituent of Aquari-Cycline is ”Tetracycline Hydrochloride", which is now legally available (S6) for use in ornamental fish.
Bacterial diseases can be devastating in aquariums and rank along with other water quality problems and protozoa as major causes of loss of aquarium fish. Aquari-Cycline is active against a wide range of Gram positive and Gram-negative bacteria including Aeromomas and Pseudomonas sp. At the recommended dose rate Aquari-Cycline is bacteriostatic against Bacterial Septicaemia, Coldwater Disease, Columnaris Disease (mouth fungus, cottonwool disease), Furunculosis, Fin and Tail Rot.
Treatment at the recommended dose rate for three days with subsequent partial water changes has not affected nitrification. However prolonged treatment of mature aquariums with antibiotics will affect nitrifying bacteria. The use of a separate treatment tank is recommended where only a few fish are infected.

Product Description
Bacter Clean M is a water Conditioner that loosens debris and detritus as well as cleans live rock & other surfaces in all reefs & marine aquariums.
BacterGen M water conditioner is a breakthrough microbial culture specifically for establishing and maintaining marine systems.
The Continuum advantage.Bacter Gen M
BacterGen M is a breakthrough in microbial cultures and is specifically designed for marine aquariums.
Whereas most competing products, designed primarily for freshwater aquariums, rarely work well in saltwater environments, BacterGen M will quickly generate effective bacterial populations in seawater.
BacterGen M rapidly establishes nitrifying biological filtration in new marine aquariums, greatly reducing the time it takes to cycle the system.
It is also designed to deliver bacteria to digest leftover food, decaying organic material and detritus in established marine fish and reef aquariums, providing for a cleaner environment for your aquarium inhabitants.
Whereas competing products may increase the production of toxic hydrogen sulfide in the system, BacterGen M is non-sulfur fixing and will reduce it to near zero.
BacterGen M contains both aerobic and anaerobic microbes which will generate new populations and greatly increase existing bacterial populations to establish and accelerate nitrification and denitrification, lowering ammonia, and nitrites, as well as lowering phosphates, nitrates and organic pollutants significantly.
Use in aquarium keeping.
Aquarium systems accumulate waste from uneaten food and other organic material.
Over time, this accumulation lowers water quality, releases toxic gases into the water, and creates sludge on the bottom.
The addition of a high quality microbe culture, such as BacterGen M will cause a rapid increase in the population of beneficial microorganisms with a resulting increase in water clarity and a drop in unbeneficial nutrients, particularly ammonia and nitrogen compounds as well as phosphates.
Continuum recommends that you consider using Reef Micro Fuel, along with the BacterGen M, as an organic carbon source to accelerate the growth and maintenance of both aerobic and anaerobic bacterial populations in your aquarium.
