Product Description:
Ceramic rings are an essential biofiltration media designed to improve water quality in aquariums by providing a high surface area for beneficial bacteria growth. These bacteria help break down harmful substances like ammonia and nitrites, ensuring a healthier aquatic environment for fish and other aquatic life. Made from durable, fish-safe ceramic material, these rings are suitable for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums and can be used in a variety of filtration systems, including canister filters, sump filters, and hang-on-back filters.
Specifications:
Material: High-quality, fish-safe ceramic
Size: Approximately 10-15mm diameter per ring
Shape: Cylindrical with a porous surface
Quantity: Available in 500g, 1kg, and 2kg packs
Compatibility: Suitable for freshwater and saltwater aquariums, ponds, and sump filters
Key Features:
Superior Biofiltration – Promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria for natural toxin removal
Highly Porous Design – Maximizes surface area for effective colonization
Durable & Long-Lasting – Does not degrade easily, ensuring continuous filtration
Versatile Use – Works in canister filters, sump filters, hang-on-back filters, and more
Enhances Water Quality – Reduces harmful toxins and stabilizes aquarium conditions
Usage Instructions:
Rinse thoroughly before use to remove any dust or debris.
Place the ceramic rings inside your aquarium filter media tray or filter compartment.
For best results, combine with mechanical and chemical filtration media.
Replace a portion of the rings every 6-12 months to maintain optimal efficiency while preserving beneficial bacteria.
Usage Tips:
Layering Strategy: Place ceramic rings after mechanical filtration (sponges) but before chemical filtration (activated carbon) for maximum efficiency.
Regular Maintenance: Rinse rings in aquarium water (not tap water) during water changes to avoid killing beneficial bacteria.
Avoid Overloading: Use the right amount based on your tank size to ensure proper filtration and water flow.
Combine with Other Media: Use alongside bio balls or lava rocks for an even stronger biological filtration system.
Note:
Do not wash with tap water or detergents, as chlorine can kill beneficial bacteria.
Not a replacement for regular water changes—use in conjunction with proper tank maintenance.
Store in a dry place when not in use to prevent mold formation.
