Aqua Clean 3D Filter Medium is a high-performance biological filtration media designed to house vast colonies of beneficial bacteria that efficiently eliminate ammonia and nitrite in aquariums and ponds. This supports stable water parameters, healthier livestock, and significantly reduced maintenance.
Manufactured from an ultra-high surface area, inert ceramic, Aqua Clean 3D Filter Medium is specifically engineered to provide ideal colonization conditions for nitrifying bacteria in both freshwater and marine systems.
Independent BET surface area analysis has determined an effective surface area of approximately 1850 m² per liter, far surpassing most conventional biological filter media available on the market.
Its innovative three-dimensional, open, and interconnected pore structure allows for excellent water flow with minimal resistance, while maintaining extended water contact time. The continuous cavities and interlinked micro-tunnels maximize usable surface area and promote the formation of a thin, highly efficient biofilm.
This combination of massive surface area and optimal porosity enables rapid bacterial colonization, allowing billions of beneficial bacteria to thrive and effectively reduce peak ammonia and nitrite levels.
