Biohome Ultimate filter media is most suitable for canister filters, overhead filters, large HOB filters.
As the name suggests Biohome Ultimate is the pinnacle of filter media design and strikes a perfect balance of size, strength, surface area accessibility and specific trace elements to increase bacteria performance and has a porosity of over 50%, which ensure that it will outperform every other filter media for the removal of Ammonia, Nitrites, and Nitrates
Trace elements added include Titania, Alumina, Ferric Oxide, Lime, Magnesia, Potash, Soda, Phosphorus Pentoxide, Chromium Sesquioxide, Manganic Oxide, Zirconia, Hafnia, Zinc Oxide, Barium Oxide, Strontia, Stannic Oxide, Sulphur Trioxide.
These trace elements are fused into the structure of this media to enhance bacterial processes only, not to alter water chemistry.
Biohome Ultimate is an efficient biological filter media but a good mechanical filtration must be provided to ensure the water passing through it does not contain any debris that might clog it and reduce efficiency. It allows both nitrifying (aerobic) bacteria for a reduction in ammonia and nitrite and denitrifying (anaerobic) bacteria for a reduction in nitrate to grow on and through its unique structure.
This media is sold by weight in Kgs. 1 Kg of media is ~1.25 Cubic Litre. For best nitrate reduction use approximately 1 Kg per 100 Litres of aquarium water for a normally stocked tank. Heavily stocked systems can take between 1.5 Kg - 2 Kg per 100 Litres to achieve full cycle filtration (reduction in nitrate).
As all Biohome media are inert it allows you to raise or lower the pH to suit certain fish species without having a buffering effect. Biohome Ultimate is made from industrial grade material to ensure a long working life. Long working life and reliability are hallmarks of all Biohome products.
Optimized for Freshwater use.
