Product information "DINO X"

DINO X

Liquid Special Algaecide Against Dinoflagellates and Golden Algae in Marine Aquariums

DINO X is a liquid special algaecide targeting golden algae and other dinoflagellates commonly found in marine aquariums.

  • DINO X prevents algae growth in the aquarium and eliminates existing infestations
  • DINO X is intended for use in marine aquariums
  • DINO X specifically targets unicellular algae like dinoflagellates, diatoms, or golden algae
  • DINO X is also effective against higher algae
  • DINO X is harmless to lower animals and fish
  • The zooxanthellae of the corals are protected and will withstand treatment without issues
  • Use in reef aquariums does not disrupt the existing bacterial flora and thus does not destabilize the aquarium environment
  • Dino X does not help against cyanobacteria!

Before use, please read our detailed HTU for DINO X carefully!

 

Dosage:

  • 5 ml DINO X per 100 liters of aquarium water
  • It is very important to calculate the exact volume of the aquarium to avoid overdosing. For severe infestations and with a good skimmer, up to 6 ml/100 liters may be used
  • Set the main lighting phase to a maximum of 6 hours per day
  • The product should always be dosed in the evening, about 1 hour after turning off the main lights
  • The photosynthesis of the zooxanthellae is stopped, which optimizes the product’s effectiveness
  • Repeat the dosage every 2 days until the targeted algae have completely disappeared
  • Set the skimmer to full power and operate 24/7.
  • No water changes during the dosing period! First water change about 1 week after the end of dosing
  • No trace element additions during the dosing period
  • No addition of mineral salts, amino preparations, SPS food, or Balling trace elements during the dosing period
  • No OZONE or carbon during the dosing period
  • No adsorbers of any kind during the dosing period
  • After the treatment, filtering through Fauna Marin Carb L activated carbon according to the dosing instructions is recommended
  • Water parameters can be adjusted with Balling Light or Kalkwasser/limewater. These have no effect on DINO X. However, ready-made products should not be used as they often contain additional trace elements
  • A general treatment duration cannot be specified. Typically, dinoflagellates are sufficiently treated with 10 dosing cycles, while other algae require around 15 cycles

These are photosynthetic organisms that form the basis of the food webs of marine and freshwater environments and play a key role in the global carbon cycle. They serve as a fundamental food source for many marine inhabitants and provide essential nutrients that promote the well-being of fish and other aquatic organisms. They are rich in proteins, fatty acids, pigments, vitamins, and minerals necessary for the growth and development of marine life.FAQDo I have to add all 3 Phyto variants at the same time? Can I use just one bottle? We recommend adding all three products to achieve the best effect. The three phytoplankton mixtures are perfectly coordinated.What happens if I add too much to my aquarium? It might cause the water to become cloudy, but it is not harmful.I have deposits in the bottle – is the plankton spoiled? No, it is normal for the plankton to settle. After gently shaking the bottle, it can be dosed again.Can I put all 3 bottles into one container and dose them together? Since the plankton species are selected based on growth rates, we do not recommend mixing them together.Can I add the Phytos with a dosing pump? The plankton must be gently shaken before use, so it is not recommended for dosing with a standard dosing pump.For more detailed information, please visit: https://www.faunamarin.de/support-downloads/
