Brightwell Aquatics Polyp Ignite gets your corals ready to eat. Many corals do not open up on their own at feeding time – Polyp Ignite is an amino acid, fatty acid and pigment complex that triggers a strong feeding response and full polyp extension, so the food you add actually gets captured and used.
Key benefits
- Triggers feeding – stimulates polyp extension in SPS, LPS and soft corals, including Xenia, Anthelia, Zoanthus and mushrooms.
- Brighter colour – rich in natural pigments: astaxanthin, chlorophyll, carotenoids, phycocyanin, beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin and more.
- Better growth – free-form amino acids are easily absorbed and support tissue growth and repair.
- Less waste – corals capture more food, so less is left to pollute the tank.
- Works best with Brightwell ReefBlizzard foods and Coral Inertia NRG+.
How to use
- Turn off the protein skimmer and mechanical filtration before dosing; switch them back on after 10–15 minutes.
- Target feeding: mix 1–5 ml in a small container and release it 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) upstream of your corals with a pipette or syringe.
- Broadcast feeding: 1 ml per 50 US gal (approx. 190 L) daily in an area of strong flow. Stay at or below 5 ml per 50 US gal daily for the first few weeks, then increase gradually.
- Pro tip: dose Polyp Ignite, wait a minute for polyps to extend, then feed ReefBlizzard or Coral Inertia NRG+.
