1 lb Ceramic Mini Bio Balls – Your Choice Aquatics

About This Product

Improve biological filtration in your aquarium with Your Choice Aquatics Ceramic Mini Bio Balls. These highly porous ceramic filter media pieces provide surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonize, helping support the biological filtration process in freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

Beneficial bacteria help convert toxic ammonia produced by fish waste and decomposing organic matter into nitrite, which is then converted into nitrate by other beneficial bacteria. Adding ceramic biological media to your filtration system helps establish and maintain a healthy biological filter.

This 1 lb package is a convenient option for aquarium hobbyists looking to add biological filtration media to a canister filter, sump, or other compatible filtration system.

Important Information

New ceramic media needs time to develop beneficial bacterial colonies before providing full biological filtration. Continue monitoring ammonia and nitrite, especially when establishing a new aquarium or adding substantial amounts of new media.

Avoid cleaning established biological media with chlorinated tap water, and do not replace all established biological filter media at once, as this can reduce the beneficial bacterial population in your aquarium.
