Biological Filter Media
- Hydor Ceramic Filter Media, 600gr. : Hydor Inert Ceramic Cylinders with exceptionally porous surface which provides optimum conditions for high colonization of beneficial bacteria which break down ammonia and nitrite. The unique cylinder design does not obstruct water passage making this media ideal for use with Hydor Prime external filters or percolators for fresh water, reef or marine aquariums.
- Nano Balls by Current USA : With a large surface area/size ratio - Nano-balls out-perform any bioball in the market. You can fit almost four Nano-Balls in the same space it takes to fill one standard bioball. Known as an excellent media for growing bacteria, the small size allows them to be used in almost any type of filter. You can place NanoBalls in a power filter, canister filter, wet-dry filter or even directly into your tank. Each package of 1/2" Nano-balls includes a polyester mesh bag to keep those buggers contained! The large spatial areas inside the bioballs allow more water to flow through the media with ease - keeping it clean and efficient. While other medias clog and channelize, the plastic construction makes them non-clogging and totally inert.
Unlike other plastic media, we made our bioballs negatively buoyant. So instead of seeing them float away, they can be placed in the area of your filter that you want them.
Easy to rinse and clean, they are lightweight and will not degrade over time.
Two Container sizes available:
- Nano-Balls 600 ct. ( 1/2" dia. ) Supports up to 30 gal. aquarium.
- Nano-Balls 1,000 ct. ( 1/2" dia. ) Supports up to 50 gal. aquarium.
- Bio-balls 2.5 gal. (200 ct.) by Won Brothers : Bio-balls are perfect biological filter media for use in freshwater, saltwater wet/dry filter systems and pond filters.
- Bio-Balls 1gal. (225 ct.) by Coralife : Coralife Bio-Balls enable aquarists to maintain large biological loads in much smaller filter areas. The dramatic increase in surface area is achieved by the unique, geometric design of the smaller, one-inch bio-balls.
