Store in a cool, dry location away from sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eaCtiv8 is a dry, free-flowing formula consisting of organic carbon sources specifically selected for enhancing metabolic rates of microorganisms and improving feed conversion of cohort members. Improved feed conversion is associated with improved cohort robustness and decreased costs of operation.  In systems with inadequate organic carbon availability, reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus may proceed to a threshold below which no further reduction occurs; application of aCtiv8 can permit further reduction of these nutrients to occur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaximum effectiveness is achieved within 60 months of manufacture date.  This formulation does not incorporate preservatives, however refrigeration is not required.  Unused contents of container should be protected from exposure to atmospheric moisture and other contaminants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo expedite nitrogen cycle during system inoculation, apply in conjunction with Inocul8 at the rate of 1 g per 50 gallons (189.3 L) daily, until the ammonia and nitrite concentrations are undetectable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor general application, apply at the rate of 1 g \/ 100 – 150 gallons (378.5 – 567.8 L) weekly, or 1 g  \/ 700 – 1,000 gallons (2,649.5 – 3,785 L) daily.  Monitor system nutrient balance.  Adjust dosage accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended is to mix the required mass of aCtiv8 to be dosed within 24 h with purified (not system) water (the volume of water used need only be enough to form a fluid solution; the precise volume is not important) in a clean vessel, and dispense the resulting solution into an out-current water flow within the main body of the recirculating system.  Avoid dispensing the solution in close proximity to skimmer intake ports.  If the suspension is to be kept ≥24 h, then refrigerate.  Do not mix with system water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepletion of available carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus will negatively impact the growth of cohorts consisting in part or entirety of phototrophs; this includes plants, algae, zooxanthellate cnidarians, and poriferans hosting symbiotic zoochlorellae.  Monitor nutrient concentrations and note apparent related impacts on cohort appearance and biomass.  Adjust nutrient content in system as necessary to maintain desired cohort appearance and growth rates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Captiv8 Aquaculture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52823142105410,"sku":null,"price":27.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0849\/4330\/7074\/files\/C8R_2024-07-20T17_43_44.182Z.png?v=1774896541","url":"https:\/\/petwholesale.ca\/products\/reef-blueprint-activ8-dry-organic-carbon-blend-for-redfield-manipulation-75-g","provider":"Pet Wholesale Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
