Good filter media provides a home for beneficial bacteria that play an important role in keeping aquarium water healthy. These bacteria help break down harmful ammonia and nitrite produced by fish waste and other organic matter. High-quality biological media provides plenty of surface area for bacteria to colonise, helping support stronger biological filtration and cleaner, more stable water.
Extremely small pores that provides massive housing for beneficial bacteria to establish.
K3 is primarily used as biological filter media, providing a surface for beneficial bacteria to colonise and support the aquarium nitrogen cycle.
Yes. Its lightweight, floating design makes it particularly suitable for moving-bed filtration systems.
K3 doesn't chemically remove these compounds. Instead, it provides a surface for beneficial bacteria that help convert ammonia and nitrite as part of the nitrogen cycle.
Yes. While it is particularly suited to moving-bed systems, K3 can also be used in static biological filtration where there is good water flow.
No. K3 is designed as long-term biological media and can be reused. In moving-bed systems, the constant movement also helps keep the media relatively clean.
