Aquarium Filter Media

Aquarium Filter Media

An Aquarium is a mini ecosystem in itself, which encloses different type of life forms within its confines. It is therefore, important that the quality of water, its hygiene level, nutrition level, etc., all are at the desired level. Aquarium Filters are one such step towards the maintenance of an aquarium. The soul of these filters is Aquarium Filter Media, which is the actual site of filtration in a filter. An Aquarium Filter Media helps filter out all or most of the undesirable substances present in tank water. As a result, the aquarium water is cleaned, and aerated, thereby benefiting the quality of life therein. Fresh Marine brings to you a wide range of quintessential and effective Aquarium Filters Media. The ensuing discussion deals with these.

Foam Filter Media. This Aquarium Filter Media, due to its porosity, can filter out all or most of the tiny pieces of metabolic wastes and other water pollutants present in an aquarium. In addition, many Foam Filter Media hold beneficial Nitrifying Bacteria, which help decompose harmful Nitrites and many other Toxic Wastes present in the tank. As a result, this Foam based Aquarium Filter Media acts as both, Biological and Mechanical Filter, to clean and aerate the aquarium, thereby benefiting the quality of life therein. Fresh Marine brings to you a wide range of Foam Filter Media, such as, Hagen Fluval Filter Foam Block, Hagen Fluval Filter Foam Block FX5, Hagen Fluval Polishing Pads, Hagen Fluval Ammonia Remover Filter Media, Hagen Fluval Zero-Carb Filter Media, Hagen Fluval Lab Series Phosphate/Nitrate Remover Filter Media, Hagen Fluval Lab Series Opti-Carb Filter Media, and Hagen Fluval 1 Plus, 2 Plus, & 3 Plus Foam Inserts, & Hagen Fluval Pre-filter Media, all by Hagen; Foam Prefilter Replacements for Maxi-Jets by Aquarium Systems; Eheim Ehfifix Pad Coarse Filter Media, Eheim Ehfifix Pad Fine Filter Media, Eheim ECCO Canister Coarse Foam & Fine Foam Filter Pads, Eheim Liberty Replacement Filter Cartridge, all 5 by EHEIM; Tetra Whisper Bio-Bag Disposable Filter Cartridges by Tetra; and Pentair Aquatics (Rainbow Lifegard) Combination Cartridges.

Aquarium Carbon.

As a result, Aquarium Carbon is an important Aquarium Filter Media, as due to its porosity; it can filter out tiny pieces of metabolic wastes and other water pollutants in a Marine Aquarium. In addition, Aquarium Carbon holds beneficial bacteria, which help decompose harmful Nitrites and many other Toxic Wastes present in the tank. Fresh Marine presents a wide variety of finest Aquarium Carbon for both types of tanks, Marine and Freshwater, Ponds, and some of them can even serve several types of filters, such as, Power Filters, Wet Dry Filters, Canister, and Modular Filters.

Bioballs. An Aquarium Filter strains tiny pieces of metabolic wastes and other water pollutants in an Aquarium. This is called Mechanical Filtration. There also exist Biological Filters, which hold beneficial Nitrifying and Denitrifying Bacteria that help decompose harmful Nitrites & Ammonia, and many other Biological Toxic Wastes present in the tank. Bioballs is the Filter Media for Biological Filters. These Aquarium Filter Media are actually the base on which the Bacterial colonies thrive.
