MIRACLE MUD SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
Benefits:
1. Miracle Mud will continuously replenish your aquarium's concentration of
minerals and trace elements into your aquarium creating an ideal environment for
both fish and corals/invertebrates.
a. It creates an environment so healthy that it produces dramatic reversal
of head and lateral line erosion (HLLE)

b. It creates an environment so healthy that even a novice aquarist can
create a reef aquarium showcase such as this aquarium!*

* this reef aquarium (stony corals dominated) requires additional
supplementation of minerals and trace elements such as the ECO Balling Method.
While other reef aquariums(soft corals dominated) will get sufficient amount of
minerals and trace elements from the Miracle Mud and that makes Miracle Mud
unique because it makes keeping and maintaining a reef aquarium simple! Anyone
can have a beautiful reef aquarium regardless of experience!
2. Protein skimmer is NOT required! Using Miracle Mud as refugium** substrate
as in EcoSystem Method make protein skimmer unnecessarily as seen in above reef
aquarium.
**EcoSystem Method vs. Refugium: By definition, a refugium is a separate
compartment connected to the main aquarium filtration system, in which plants
and micro-organisms can grow and reproduce. It is not a stand-alone filtration
unit. In the typical reef setup, whether or not you include substrate in the
refugium is not important, if your goal is to simply create a microscopic reef
food web for your reef aquarium inhabitants. However, the refugium is just one
component parts of the entire EcoSystem Miracle Mud Method, in which Miracle Mud
substrate is a key element that makes EcoSystem Method very unique, simple, and
friendly to use. The EcoSystem Miracle Mud Method is the only comprehensive,
stand-alone filtration system unit in the world!
3. Miracle Mud makes an ideal and the most efficient DENITRATOR refugium filter
leading to pristine environment for both fish and corals/invertebrates. The
fine consistency of Miracle Mud produces distinct aerobic and anaerobic layers
that enable it to be both an excellent nitrifier and denitrifier.
a. Miracle Mud is the most ECONOMIC refugium filter substrate to use if
the goal is to remove nitrate from the system water! Unlike competitors'
refugium substrates that will need at least 6 inches (15 cm) of deep sand bed
(DSB) to achieve denitrification process, Miracle Mud will only need one inch
(2.5 cm) deep. DO YOUR HOMEWORK! Multiply the price of competitors' products
by a factor of 4 to 6!

b. Unlike competitors' refugium substrates, Miracle Mud will NOT lead
to serious potential problems such as "old tank syndrom" or "nutrients sink" as
in DSB. This potential problem can lead to imbalance of aquatic environment
(i.e. persistence high level of phosphate and nitrate and nuisance algal
growth). The fine consistency of Miracle Mud composition will prevent waste
materials sink to the bottom of the refugium substrate as in competitors'
refugium substrates.
c. Unlike competitors' refugium substrates, Miracle Mud will continuously
replenish your aquarium's concentration of minerals and trace elements so that
ANYONE can set up and maintain a reef aquarium with ease.
