Simple makes my skimmer work harder pulls out lots of well Crap my understanding it is a natural clay not harmful and usful as a polisher and help the skimmer do it's job. I am sure Claude will correct me if I am wrong I have tried it twice now. I have seen no bad effects.

Hi


The cleaning of water is only one part of the advantages which Ultralife have
It is not a zeolith powder like the most other watercleares
We use the Ultralife also as an food cause the material is able to bind organic subtances and give it to the corals as an food

The particles which will not covered by a coral will skim up
and help to reduce the waterpollution

Hi Claude...
I understand that ultra life is mineral clay (montmorrollinite clay).
Wich would be the most important chemicals diferences between the montmorrollinite clay and the zeolite?
the chemical properties would be similar, but montmorrollinite clay would be softer (more soft) in their ab-adsortion range than zeolites? other diferences?
Is the same the montmorrollinite clay used in salt water than the montmorrollinite clay used in fresh water (koi ponds)?

Hi

We use a special kind of clay which did not only work as an
adsorber , it works also as an ion exchanger which can be used
for coral feeding.
instead from zeolith powder it works softer and
can be used as a food
