Bio Balls 50 pack from Aqua One - (10756)
Aqua One's Bio Balls are supplied with all Aquis, Advance, Nautilus and Ocellaris external canister filters to provide a perfect home for millions of microscopic nitrifying bacteria, so sought after by fishkeepers. By design, Bio Balls break up the flow of water through your canister filter, which naturally removes larger particles of aquarium debris and also ensures that the maximum surface are of the Bio Balls are utilised for bacterial cultivation.
Bio Balls sit in the bottom section of all Aqua One canister filters and can be rinsed in a little aquarium water and reused repeatedly, always discarding the dirty water at the bottom of the canister at the same time. However as with all aquarium filtration, never change all filter elements at once on an established setup as this may remove too much beneficial bacteria and upset the balance of your filter.
