    The Kent Marine Bioreef Aquarium is the latest new nano reef aquarium

    and has been designed to allow easy reef keeping for all.

    Lighting, circulation and water quality are to main hardware factors

    in creating and maintaining a successful reef aquarium.

    The following pages show how each of these key elements has been

    achieved in the Bioreef to make your reef keeping enjoyable.

    We hope you enjoy successful reef keeping with your Bioreef

    Practical fishkeeping Magazine reviewed the Bioreef as part of its Sept 2010 issue and commented…

    …The Verdict‘One of the most suitable tanks for a nano reef because of

    its lighting, filtration and water flow. It has a large volume and although similar to the River Reef, this Kent tank is well thought out and more suitable for marines.’

    Kent Nano Reef A&B – Supplements made easy!

    • Nano Reef A&B are a two part calcium and KH buffering system.

    • Two part systems allow the hobbyist to control calcium and KH levels precisely by adding one part or the other as the aquarium chemistry requires.

    • Part A contains calcium, magnesium, potassium, iodide, and other trace elements.

    • Part B contains carbonate, bicarbonate, sulfate, and trace element salts.

    • These salts need to be added separately to prevent them from reacting with each other and precipitating out of solution.
