Plastic Bio Balls 1.5-2″

Product details

Plastic Bio Balls 1.5-2" are aquarium filter media designed to increase biological filtration by providing a large amount of surface area for beneficial nitrifying bacteria to colonize. Installed inside a canister, sump, or other internal/external filter where water flows through the media, bio balls support the nitrogen cycle by helping convert toxic ammonia to nitrite and then to nitrate. This can make them a practical choice for aquariums that need dependable biofiltration, provided you also maintain good mechanical filtration so the media doesn’t clog with debris. Use them as a replacement or supplement to existing media in your filter chamber, following the flow path and spacing your system requires.

Features:

• Plastic porous surface helps create housing for beneficial nitrifying bacteria for biological filtration
• 1.5–2" media size is intended for standard filter compartments that accept this media format
• Available in black or blue to match common filter setups and sumps
• Simple, durable media that can be reused as part of your ongoing filtration media layout
• Best results when paired with regular pre-filtration or sponge/foam mechanical media to reduce buildup
