BioCeraMAX 1600 is a unique element intended for biological filtration of water in freshwater and saltwater aquariums, paludariums, aqua-terrariums and terrarium pools.
It is in the form of balls made of fine-pore sintered glass ensuring an exceptionally high filtration surface.
The internal surface of pores becomes home to useful strains of nitrifying bacteria of the genera Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter.
These microbes remove and convert ammonia (Nitrosomonas) and nitrites (Nitrobacter) – oxidizing them to nitrate form, far safer for aquarium residents.
