The science behind clear water for tropical freshwater aquariums

Philips developed this Tropical Aquarium Purifier together with aquarium and water experts. Scientific research and 3 years of extensive testing have resulted in the most efficient and safe purifier in the market. It releases ozone into the water in a minimum, controlled dose which has a naturally purifying effect.

• Ozone is created after a Corona discharge (just like with lightning during a storm) and is an unstable compound of 3 oxygen atoms.

• In order for it to be converted to a stable compound again, ozone will react with organic components which it meets on the way, for instance, organic waste.

• That is why ozone has a purifying effect on air and water in nature: it converts waste into harmless components.

This is what inspired Philips to develop a product that purifies the water of tropical freshwater aquariums by using ozone technology. Tests have proven the effects of the Purifier on the clarity of aquarium water.
