Sera Siporax Professional[Volume - 500ml]

The original sera siporax Professional is ideal for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums, as well as ponds. Regardless of the type of filter used (internal, external, or trickle), it maximizes the surface area needed for biological cleansing while providing the perfect substrate for beneficial filter bacteria to thrive.

The processes of filtration and decomposition occurring in the substrate of natural waters are crucial. Micro-organisms break down organic waste, making it available as nutrients for aquatic plants—simultaneously eliminating harmful substances like ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate. In nature, minimal waste is produced in relation to the water volume, allowing the existing substrate to support a sufficient population of micro-organisms.

However, an aquarium represents a compact biotope, necessitating the maximization of surface area to ensure thorough and reliable decomposition of organic remnants.

sera has successfully implemented this concept with the innovative high-performance filter medium, sera siporax.

In contrast to other filter rings on the market, sera siporax is made from sintered glass. This exceptional material boasts a unique three-dimensional pore structure that significantly increases surface area. The fine pores create ideal conditions for bacteria that degrade pollutants. As it forms an interconnected system, the bacteria are continually washed by water, allowing them to efficiently break down contaminants. Additionally, the unique pore arrangement facilitates self-cleansing of the substrate, resulting in extended filter longevity.
