Description of Advanced Bio Balls Filter Media for Efficient Aquarium and Pond Filtration - Made in The USA

OUTSTANDING FILTRATION! Each bio ball is covered in spines to dramatically increase the surface area of each ball providing space for a massive number of beneficial bacteria to colonize. These good bacteria break down harmful organic waste. You will receive approximately 250 1-inch bio balls in a mesh bag. Just rinse and use. SUPERIOR BIO MEDIA: A huge problem with other bio balls is that they have a sponge in their centers to increase surface area, but sponge pores trap gunk that does not wash away. This trapped gunk reduces water quality. This problem is solved with our bio balls! How? They have a small solid center covered in spines that won’t trap gunk. You never have to suffer with poor water quality. 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 reliable biological filtration media for fresh and saltwater. They are manufactured for use in koi ponds, freshwater fish tanks, saltwater aquariums, aquaponics, fish hatcheries and much more. These 1” bio balls are perfect for the limited space of an aquarium sump. EASY TO CLEAN - If organic waste builds up in the bio balls, they can be gently rinsed in dechlorinated water to remove debris and refresh the bio balls. Use our FilterFirst, dual density bonded filter pad, or water polishing pad to capture large particles to help keep your bio balls clean of debris.

Great media for cleaner waters

When I tried this product in my aquarium, it significantly improved the water quality. The tiny balls filter out waste and debris effectively without clogging up the pump. They are also easy to clean and reuse. However, the amount needed for larger tanks can be costly.

Pros
  • Effective filtering, easy to clean
Cons
  • Can be costly for larger tanks

Highly recommended for fish and aquatic animals

I use these with my Matrix Seachem Biocarrier. They are well made, but I ordered 250 pieces and it's too much for me, I would have ordered less. I ordered on the site.

Pros
  • Pet Supplies
Cons
  • Vulgarity

So far so good, but they swim.

As the name suggests, they float. So if you hold them on top of the filter, some of it will come out of the water. Perhaps buoyancy isn't the best trait for something destined to become a home for aquatic bacteria.

Pros
  • Filter accessories
Cons
  • Empty
