Simply add 1/2 cup per 40 gallons of aquarium water.  FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - Premium Activated Carbon QUESTION: This carbon is tiny does it require a special mesh media bag? ANSWER: Yes, it requires a very fine mesh media bag. You can use our Fine Mesh Filter Media Drawstring Bags or a similar tiny mesh bag option.

After this, most of thewater is drained and the product is packaged to ensure freshness. QUESTION: Why does your premium carbon weigh more than similar size containers? ANSWER: Our premium carbon is intentionally crushed to a small size to allow for greater surface area. The smaller fragments pack tighter leaving lessgaps compared to larger carbon pieces. Additional weight is the result of some moisture left over from the special cleaning baths. QUESTION: Is it necessary to rinse your carbon? ANSWER: Yes, during shipment carbon pieces rub against each other and may produce dust. A short rinse under tap or RO water will rinse away this dust.

300 Count Bio Ball Filter Media with Mesh Bag - 1.5 Inch Large  OUTSTANDING FILTRATION! Each bio ball is covered in spines to dramatically increase the surface area of each ball to nearly 2 square feet providing space for a massive number of beneficial bacteria to colonize. These good bacteria break down harmful organic waste keeping your aquatic friends safe. You will receive approximately 300 1-1/2-inch bio balls in a mesh bag. Just rinse and use.   TOUGH AND UNIQUE! Our bio balls’ spherical shape and precise spine placement permits them to pack tightly into any shape or filter type without losing surface area. Molded from high density plastic, these balls are lightweight but tough enough to keep their shape and will never degrade or wear out. Bio balls can be used loose or in the mesh bag with plastic zipper.   TRUSTED! Our Bio balls are 100% polypropylene making them a safe reliable biological filtration media for fresh and saltwater. They are manufactured for use in koi and water garden ponds, freshwater fish tanks, saltwater aquariums, aquaponics, fish hatcheries and much more.   SUPERIOR TO LAVA ROCK: Over time, porous lava rock becomes clogged with d debris decreasing its surface area so that its ability to house and grow good beneficial bacteria plummets. Our bio balls’ uniquely spaced spines allow most debris to pass right through them. Lava rock has tiny pores which make it difficult to clean while bio balls in most applications never need cleaning. A bag of wet lava rock is many times heavier than our bio balls.   RISK FREE! Does this come with a money back guarantee? YES! Your purchase comes with a full 90 day no-risk, no-nonsense 100% Money Back Guarantee. Either you're thrilled, or we don't want your money! FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - Aquatic Experts Bio Balls with Mesh Bag  QUESTION: How easy is it to clean the bio balls? ANSWER: Typically you do not need to clean bio balls since most filters use a prefilter pad to remove most of the debris before water flows to the bio balls. In an  outside pond, bio balls may require cleaning. In this case it is best to take a bucket of water from your pond, and swish the balls around in this water to preserve the good bacteria attached to the surface of the bio balls.  QUESTION: How long should the bio balls last? ANSWER: Our Bio balls are made from high density plastic so they should never degrade or wear out.  QUESTION: I have a 1,000 gallon water garden pond. How many bio balls do I need? ANSWER: Typically, our 300 pack of bio balls will handle the bio-load of a typical stocked pond. With this said there are variables which effect how heavy a bio-load is in a pond including: how many fish, their size, how often they are fed, and so on. The only way to know if you have enough bio balls is to test your water for  ammonia or nitrites. If you detect ammonia or nitrite levels in your pond water ( not caused from overfeeding or a dead fish) add more bio balls.  QUESTION: Does your mesh bag have a metal or plastic zipper? ANSWER: Our mesh bag has a fish-safe plastic zipper.

Our Classic Filter Pads quickly became one of the top choices; they are a great value and offer consistent and repeatable filtration performance in all types of aquariums. Place pad in flowing water to trap uneaten food, waste, decaying plants, detritus, and other floating particulates from the water. Changing filter pads regularly will increase water quality by removing solid organic compounds before they continue to break down and add additional nutrients (which can increase algae growth) to the water in your fish tank. Made Of  Pads are constructed of durable polyester fibers bonded by our special resin to give the media exceptional strength.  Directions  Place Classic Bonded Filter Pads directly in your aquarium filter from our bag or, if you prefer, rinse the pad first in clean fresh water. The water should flow through the open or looser fiber side of our premium pad first so that larger debris is trapped before entering the tight weaved lower section of the pad.  Tip  Since pads need to be replaced on a regular basis, a cardboard template can be made of the filter pad you are replacing. Keep and use this template whenever you need to cut out new filter pads. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:Q: Do you place white side or blue side up?A: Our Classic Filter pads are designed to flow and filter water exactly the same through either side. Q: Can the filter pad be cleaned a few times before disposal?A: You can rinse our ClassicBlue filter pad in a sink. As water flows through it, you can gently squeeze it and you will see a bunch of trapped particles being rinsed out. Depending on your filtration, it can be cleaned and reused a few times. Q: Can I layer ClassicBlue pad with your polishing pads?A: Yes, the water needs to flow through ClassicBlue pad and then through our polishing pad. Q: What's the difference between this and your FilterFirst density roll?A: Our ClassicBlue Bonded filter pad has an open fiber network which traps small to large particles while our FilterFirst Premium density filter pad has a layer to trap small and large particles as well as a dense bottom later which traps fine particles. Q: Will the blue dye come off your padd and get into my aquarium water?A: Blue dye will stay on our filter pads because we mix our dye with waterproof glue, not water-resistant glue.   UPC:  808857291189

Both ways will give the same great results as long as there is good water flow throughout your entire pond.  If you do not have adequate water flow, add PondFirst as the clean water is flowing into your pond to allow our treatment to quickly make your  water safe.
