Chihiros New Doctor - Touch Control
Product Overview
Inhibiting stubborn green algae blooms and eliminating pathogenic waterborne bacteria without adding harsh chemicals or disrupting beneficial filter media requires a smart, automated sterilization system. The Chihiros New Doctor (Touch Control) combines three specialized care features into one streamlined unit using chemical-free micro-electrolysis technology to release reactive oxygen species that destroy algae spores and pathogens on contact. Engineered specifically for aquariums 30 gallons and larger with TDS levels below 500 ppm, this advanced water clarifier features dedicated Plant, Fish, and Shrimp operating modes managed via an intuitive, water-resistant manual touch interface.
Key Features & Benefits
- Chemical-Free Water Sterilization: Micro-electrolysis destroys free-floating green algae spores and disease-causing bacteria without harming beneficial nitrifying colonies.
- 3 Specialized Livestock Modes: Custom preset algorithms tailored for Planted Tanks, Community Fish, and Sensitive Dwarf Shrimp setups.
- Intuitive Touch Control Interface: Easily cycle between operational modes and power settings with a simple tap on the main control unit display.
- Large Tank Capability: Optimized sterilization output engineered specifically for medium to large aquariums over 30 gallons.
- Livestock & Plant Safe: 100% safe for sensitive freshwater inhabitants including Neocaridina/Caridina shrimp, fish fry, and aquatic mosses.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the main difference between the Touch Control and Bluetooth versions of the Chihiros New Doctor?
The Touch Control version features a dedicated capacitive touch button on the main controller, allowing you to toggle modes directly at the tank without requiring a smartphone app or Bluetooth connection.
2. How does Plant Mode differ from Fish or Shrimp Mode on the Chihiros New Doctor?
Plant Mode increases micro-electrolysis burst frequency to actively target free-floating green water and spot algae spores, promoting plant health. Fish and Shrimp Modes alter pulse timing to specifically target bacterial pathogens and infectious microbes while remaining gentle on sensitive livestock.
3. Will this unit harm the beneficial nitrifying bacteria in my filter or substrate?
No. The micro-electrolysis reaction is localized and short-lived. Oxidizing molecules neutralize free-floating organisms in the open water column and break down within seconds without affecting biological colonies settled inside your filter media or aquasoil.
