Designed for the prefiltration of larger debris sera biofibres are perfect for biomechanical prefiltration, efficiently capturing larger dirt particles. This helps safeguard your subsequent filter media from coarse contaminants and enhances the biological effectiveness of the filtration system. They are suitable for use in freshwater, saltwater, and pond filtration systems. Additionally, sera biofibres make an outstanding spawning medium and a safe hiding spot for fry. They are also ideal for transporting shrimp, offering a stable surface for the creatures in transport bags, which helps minimize their stress during transit.

Bio Filtration Bioball 37mm EXCEPTIONAL FILTRATION! Each bio ball features spines that significantly enhance the surface area to nearly 2 square feet, allowing for a vast number of beneficial bacteria to thrive. These helpful bacteria effectively break down harmful organic waste. You will receive about 300 bio balls, each measuring 1-1/2 inches, conveniently packaged in a mesh bag. Simply rinse and they are ready for use. STURDY AND DISTINCTIVE! The spherical design and strategic spine arrangement of our bio balls enable them to fit snugly into any shape or type of filter while maximizing surface area. Crafted from high-density plastic, these balls are lightweight yet robust enough to maintain their form, ensuring they will not degrade or wear over time. Bio balls can be utilized loose or within the mesh bag equipped with a plastic zipper. RELIABLE! Our Bio balls are comprised of 100% polypropylene, making them a dependable choice for biological filtration in both freshwater and saltwater environments. They are designed for use in koi and water garden ponds, freshwater aquariums, saltwater tanks, aquaponics systems, fish hatcheries, and much more. SUPERIOR TO LAVA ROCK: Over time, porous lava rock can become clogged with debris, reducing its surface area and its capacity to support beneficial bacteria. In contrast, the uniquely positioned spines of our bio balls allow most debris to flow through them easily. While lava rock has tiny pores that make cleaning a challenge, bio balls typically do not require cleaning in most applications. Additionally, a bag of wet lava rock can be significantly heavier than our bio balls. EASY TO CLEAN - When organic waste accumulates in the bioballs, they can be gently rinsed in dechlorinated water to eliminate debris and rejuvenate the bioballs. To capture larger particles before they reach the bioballs, use our FilterFIrst dual density bonded filter pad or water polishing pad.

Designed for the prefiltration of larger dirt particles sera biofibres are perfect for biomechanical prefiltration, efficiently trapping larger dirt particles. This way, you can safeguard the subsequent filter media from heavy contamination and enhance the biological performance of your filter. They are compatible with freshwater, saltwater, and pond water filtration systems. Additionally, sera biofibres serve as a fantastic spawning medium and provide a safe hiding spot for fry. They are also ideal for transporting shrimps – the fibres offer a stable grip for the creatures in transport bags, reducing their stress levels during transit.

VERSA MAX 2 These sponge cartridges for AQUAEL filters are crafted from specially chosen phenol-free sponge material. They provide effective mechanical filtration of water, capturing impurities and visible particles.

The ASAP series of cutting-edge internal filters stands out due to its straightforward design. You will find it incredibly easy to swap out the sponge cartridge or clean the filter. To keep your aquarium looking pristine, consider using separately sold filter cartridges that contain activated carbon or phosphate absorbent. These filters are capable of functioning in shallow water (as little as 5 cm deep), making them perfect for aqua-terrariums as well. AQUAEL introduces an innovative new range of internal aquarium filters. The ASAP filters merge exceptional performance and user-friendly features with an intelligent design that minimizes maintenance time. The ASAP internal filter is equipped with a modern, energy-efficient motor encased in a sleek housing, along with a sizable transparent filter bowl filled with specially selected filtration sponge. This sponge quickly becomes colonized by beneficial bacteria, allowing water that flows through the filter to undergo both biological and mechanical filtration. This ensures that the water remains clear and safe for the aquatic life in your aquarium. Maintenance consists of two key procedures: one involves removing the filter bowl and replacing it with a new one (we offer standard cartridges as well as those containing activated carbon or phosphate absorbent to inhibit algae growth). The other procedure is rinsing the filtration sponge in water drawn from the tank. This can be done without needing to take the entire filter out of the aquarium, making it very convenient and significantly cutting down maintenance time. The new ASAP internal filters are also perfectly suited for aquaterrariums, as they can operate in water as shallow as 5 centimeters. Moreover, they effectively oxygenate the tank water by creating strong surface movement. There are three distinct models available, offering capacities of 300, 500, and 700 l/h respectively. They are designed for aquarium tanks ranging from a few dozen to 250 litres. Their functional characteristics make these filters suitable for both novice and experienced aquarists.
