CarbonDoser – The Worlds Most Precise CO2 Regulator now available in the UK from bluetangmarine.

With the aid of a suitable Calcium Reactor and media this will replenish all your main elements in your reef tank.  Our Reef Metabolics method can include the use of a Calcium Reactor and successfully incorporates a CarbonDoser, reactor, media and use of Reef Metabolics Trace Elements, Reef Envy coral nutrition and Reef Bioload for Nutrient Control.  We have had huge success with this setup on one of our systems at bluetang, with our Acropora thriving.  The CarbonDoser provides stable accurate supply of CO2 without having to adjust many times, providing the stability needed for a successful reef aquarium.  When your coral growth explodes, you can simply turn it up! No other adjustments needed.

For planted freshwater tanks, the CarbonDoser will help provide the much needed CO2 supply.

The UK version from bluetang includes:

  • CarbonDoser V2.0 Electronic “Box”
  • CarbonDoser CO2 Regulator
  • CarbonDoser Exclusive Checkvalve
  • John Guest push-in fittings
  • Polyurethane tubing
  • UK Power Supply for CarbonDoser

The new V2.0 allows for the aquarist to position the CO2 cylinder out of the way in a dry remote area.  Then mounting the “box” anywhere such as up on a board with all the electronics/pH controllers/ETC.

This product has forever changed the introduction of CO2 into an aquarium and is used for CO2 injection for a freshwater planted aquarium, or a Calcium reactor in a saltwater application.

CarbonDoser guarantee that nowhere on this planet can you find a BETTER or MORE PRECISE regulator! The problem of “dumping” is completely eliminated with this regulator. Dumping is always a problem with ALL OTHER regulators which utilise a needle valve.  Simply because, a needle valve relies on the pressure on both sides of it for accuracy.  So, even though you have it set at a certain “bubble rate”, once the pressure in the cylinder (or the outside atmospheric pressure) changes, so will the amount of CO2 that passes through the needle valve.  This is why it is physically impossible for any and ALL other regulators that rely on a needle valve to ever be consistent.

This regulator does not have a needle valve, but instead, it has an electronic valve that opens and closes in a fraction of a second, (each “opening and closing” equates to a bubble) and, due to the fact that it is “electronic” the “bubble rate” can NEVER change.  Once it is set, it can never vary more than +/- 1/1,000=of a second.

COMPATIBLE WITH:
• Neptune
• Hydros
• GHL
• PinPoint

Coral Reef Additives, Treatments, Reef Filtration Media

Ross was so fascinated by the Indo-Pacific surgeonfish after keeping a tank at home, he decided to set up a business calling it BLUETANG after graduating from the University of Gloucestershire in 2007.  Ross works with the aquatic trade distributing aquatic products alongside working with local schools and companies offering many services from Gigabit Internet to IT Consultancy that all help fuel his passion for the sea and coral conservation.  This has lead the business to be comprised of both Marine and Media based services.   Any service from bluetang will ultimately help towards his acropora project in the aim for a more sustainable aquatic industry.

The Blue Tang is still a big part of his life. “He’s 19 now and enormous,” said Ross. “He’s had to have several new tanks as he grew, in order to accommodate him properly.”  The fish is very distinctive with a royal blue circular body which is flat like a pancake, a pointed snout-like nose and a yellow tail. Dory in the film ‘Finding Nemo’ is a regal blue tang.

When Ross started selling coral alongside his IT Services from his first premises in Quedgeley, Gloucester in 2014, he imported it from various places in Australia, mostly sourced from the Great Barrier Reef.  Corals are live marine invertebrates which are popular with saltwater fishkeeping hobbyists.  But after a while Ross became concerned that the coral he was buying was being taken from the wild.  He also stated that in recent years the Great Barrier Reef has suffered mass bleaching events, so every effort needs to be taken to help the reef recover.

“It wasn’t very Eco-friendly,” he said. “I was unhappy that I was depleting natural resources. So I did some research and decided to propagate the coral right here in the UK” steering his aquatic side of the business away from importing from the wild.  Now Ross runs large acropora-dominated tanks in a new larger premises based on the edge of the River Severn to propagate Acropora Coral in the UK with the aim of supplying the trade with fully sustainable UK grown tank hardened coral, grown on a range of products Ross developed called Reef Metabolics.

As his business relationship with his aquatic suppliers expands, Blue Life USA, were looking for a UK Distributor for their own product range.  So, in 2018 Ross took the opportunity to distribute this brand too.

Ross’s passion for technology still is running strong, with all the BLUETANG hosting services run on state of the art self hosted servers setup by Ross in Gloucester.  Powered by Solar, and multi Gigabit internet connections!  BLUETANG is proud to support local Schools for over 15 years with all aspects of IT hardware, network and Internet infrastructure so they can deliver the curriculum more effectively.  Please read our news for the latest projects.

While the business is going from strength to strength, and both sides of the business are helping Ross to provide a sustainable future that is not depleting the ecosystem, the Blue Tang fish that started it all is also doing well – and looks as if he will continue to inspire Ross for a good few years to come.
