Chihiros Doctor Mate - Bluetooth Control
Product Overview
Suppressing stubborn green algae blooms and eliminating harmful waterborne pathogens in compact nano tanks without adding chemical treatments or disrupting delicate filter media requires a smart, space-saving sterilizer. The Chihiros Doctor Mate (Bluetooth Control) utilizes chemical-free micro-electrolysis technology to release active oxidizing agents into the water column, destroying free-floating algae spores and disease-causing bacteria on contact.
Key Features & Benefits
- Chemical-Free Micro-Electrolysis: Generates powerful, short-lived reactive oxygen species to sterilize floating algae spores and harmful bacteria without disrupting beneficial bio-filter colonies.
- 3 Tailored Preset Modes: Custom-programmed operating algorithms for Plant, Fish, and Shrimp configurations to match your specific livestock and aquascape demands.
- Nano Tank Optimization: Ultra-compact reactor disc footprint engineered specifically for small aquariums and nano displays under 30 gallons.
- MyChihiros App & Bluetooth Connectivity: Adjust sterilization intensity, configure custom schedules, and monitor device status remotely via smartphone Bluetooth control.
- Livestock & Plant Safe: 100% safe for sensitive freshwater inhabitants including Neocaridina/Caridina dwarf shrimp, fish fry, and aquatic mosses.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between the Chihiros Doctor Mate and the Chihiros New Doctor?
The Chihiros Doctor Mate is engineered specifically for nano aquariums under 30 gallons with a smaller reactor footprint and lower burst output. The Chihiros New Doctor is calibrated for larger aquariums 30 gallons and above.
2. Will the micro-electrolysis mist from the Doctor Mate harm my filter's beneficial bacteria?
No. The reactive oxidizing agents generated by the device are micro-localized and decay within seconds into basic oxygen and water molecules. They target free-floating spores in the water column without affecting nitrifying bacteria colonized deep inside your filter media or substrate.
3. Is the Chihiros Doctor Mate safe for sensitive nano dwarf shrimp?
Yes! Selecting the dedicated Shrimp Mode in the MyChihiros app adjusts the sterilization frequency and output intensity to suit sensitive species like Crystal Red (Caridina) and Cherry (Neocaridina) shrimp.
