Product Description

The Tunze Macro Algae 3181 Reactor is designed for aquariums from 100 to 600 litres.

When running the 3181 Reactor the ideal flow rate is 500 to 1,200 l/h

The 3181 is economical on power as it only has a energy consumption with pump of approx. 20 W

It is ideally suited in sumps with a measurement (L x W x H): 233 x 195 x 422 mm

The Comline Pump 2500 electronic and Turbelle Controller basic 7090.200 is included in the box making the 3181 an all in one solution.

The TUNZE 3181 algae reactor will:

  • Create growth for cultivation of algae in seawater
  • Biological detoxification of ecosystems by algae / plants
  • Reduction of nitrate and phosphate content
  • Filtration of the aquarium water
  • Production of food supplement for fish
  • Zooplankton refuge, serving as food for corals and fish
  • Enrichment of the water with oxygen
  • Provide natural filtration / export of nutrients

  • The Macro Algae Reactor MAR 3181 is specially constructed to cultivate algae in seawater and plants in freshwater.

    Chaetomorpha "Spaghetti Algae" is cultured by many marine aquarists to eliminate nitrates and phosphates from the aquatic biotope.

    It is absolutely sufficient to harvest a handful of algae from time to time to maintain the biological balance in an aquarium – an economical and easy alternative to many chemicals or resins.

    Naja Grass, Najas guadalupensis, can be grown to purify freshwater systems, such as cichlid biotopes.

    TUNZE MAR 3181 can be placed in any filter basin or next to the aquarium without external filter technology.

    The water circulation in the reactor ensures the rotation of the algae culture and thus reduces the number of light sources accompanied by strong plant growth.

    However, additional light sources can be added to the device as needed.
