How it works: Accumulation of nitrogen is one of the most critical problems of a re-circulating "water re-use" system. Nitrogen in the system, commonly referred to as Total Ammonia-Nitrogen (TAN), is a by-product of protein metabolism. TAN is excreted from the gills of fish as they digest food and is produced when bacteria decomposes organic waste solids within the system. When the water in a system has a pH of about 7.0, the system is stable and the majority of TAN is ionized and does not adversely affect the system. But when a system has a pH of about 9.0, up to 30 percent of TAN may not be ionized and levels of ammonia-nitrogen can become extremely toxic to fish. 

Nitrite-nitrogen results from the oxidation of ammonia-nitrogen. When nitrifying bacteria (nitrosomonas) consume ammonia-nitrogen for energy, they produce nitrite-nitrogen as a by-product. Nitrite-nitrogen then binds with hemoglobin to form methemoglobin, which is not capable of binding and transporting oxygen. This ultimately suffocates the fish. In most cases re-circulating systems with mature nitrifying bacteria colonies should maintain nitrite-nitrogen concentrations below 1 mg/l. Fortunately, nitrobacter bacteria, also present within the system, use nitrite-nitrogen for energy and produce a much less harmful nitrate-nitrogen by-product. 
Nitrifying bacteria are the foundation of biological filtration and safely grow on all surfaces of the aquatic environment, including substrate, plumbing and the walls of the tank.
