This model stands 16- 3/8” tall, and has a footprint of 6- ½” in diameter the chamber and lid are produced entirely out of cast acrylic. The profile of the N24 mirrors that of the C-series while the N18 striving for the smallest envelope forgoes the recognizable ARID gear shaped profile for a more simple and compact form.įor the aquarist with a system from 40-120 US gallons (150-450 liters) the N18 is the smallest practical use of the ARID reactor embodied in a H.O.T. The N24 has additional chamfered edges on the lid, flange, and base.

Highly polished acrylic edges are found throughout the N-series. The aquarist can easily remove the light cover to reveal the inner workings of the opaque acrylic chamber and inspect the growth of the macro-algae inside. Small but mighty… The N-series (aka Nano series), N18 and N24 with its acrylic construction, are marketed for the aquarist that collects and displays their kit just as passionately as they collect and display the organisms residing within the main display. Functions such as, increasing and stabilizing Ph from day to night, lowering dissolved CO2 concentrations, keeping dissolved oxygen even from day to night, and increasing dissolved oxygen to levels higher than can be attained with skimmers alone, all standard benefits of running the ARID system. The ARID can perform functions the previously mentioned equipment can`t. Designed to replace GFO (granulated ferric oxide), nitrate reactors, bio-pellet reactors, carbon dosing and even protein “skimmers” (foam fractionators). Maximum nutrient uptake is ensured by pushing system water evenly through the macroalgae mass.Įliminate the clutter around your aquarium the ARID can function as a stand-alone filtration system. The LEDs were selected to supply intense PAR (photosynthetic active radiation) for rapid macroalgae growth. Vapor heat pipe technology keeps the LEDs running cool for maximum light emission and lifespan while keeping the heat out of your aquarium. The unique design of the ARID incorporates a coaxial LED light array housed in a tube to maximize light penetration and efficiency.
