Brightwell Aquatics Ionit-R

Overview

Brightwell Aquatics Ionit-R is a high-capacity, regenerable mixed adsorbent resin designed for freshwater, marine, and reef aquariums. It dramatically improves water quality by removing dissolved organics, toxic gases, heavy metals, and excess nutrients such as ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphate. Unlike single-use media, Ionit-R can be regenerated over 250 times, making it an extremely cost-effective alternative to traditional activated carbon and other disposable filter media.

Key Features

  • Regenerable mixed-bed adsorbent resin for all aquarium types

  • Removes dissolved organic compounds, discoloration, and foul odors

  • Helps control ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphate levels

  • Binds heavy metals and other impurities, protecting sensitive livestock

  • Will not leach impurities back into the water once exhausted

  • Can be regenerated with a simple saltwater soak, lasting hundreds of cycles

  • Far more cost-effective than activated carbon over the long term

  • Safe for use in freshwater, marine, and reef systems
