BioLodge biological filter media is an essential home for beneficial bacteria to live. This bio media’s deep pores create a massive surface area making it the perfect place for these bacteria to colonize. Fish waste, uneaten fish food, and decaying plants break down into toxins. Good bacteria that live in BioLodge bio filter media will control these toxins including ammonia, nitrites, and even nitrates. The center of each porous rock has little to no oxygen, making it the perfect environment to grow anaerobic bacteria. These bacteria consume and break down nitrate to improve water quality between regular water changes. This biological fish tank filter media works perfectly in marine aquariums, tropical aquariums, african cichlid tanks, live planted tanks, goldfish tanks, amphibian tanks, shrimp tanks as well as indoor and small outdoor ponds, and water gardens.
