Product information "Siporax - Filter medium"

Sera Siporax - the power pack for your aquarium filter

  • achieves the best water quality through biological filtration
  • suitable for freshwater and saltwater aquariums

Sera siporax was developed on the basis of an aquatic biological study. The pore structure of the nitrifying (nitrite-degrading) layers at the bottom of the water was reproduced with great technological effort. The result: thanks to the special manufacturing process, each individual roll of Sera siporax offers around 1 m2 "rolled up" surface area that can be colonised by bacteria. Compared to other ceramic filter media, this is precisely the advantage of Sera siporax. It is not just the nominal surface area that characterises an excellent filter material, but only the surface area of the pore structure, which is large enough for bacteria to colonise. A small - but significant - difference.

Furthermore, there is always an optimum flow rate inside Sera siporax. The special, three-dimensionally cross-linked pore structure leads to this effect. In this way, the colonised bacteria are always supplied with sufficient oxygen and are not flushed from the filter medium due to excessively fast flow.

The colonisation conditions for the cleaning bacteria, as provided by Sera siporax, are the essential basis for a stable and particularly active bio-film that ensures reliable pollutant degradation.

sera siporax is the optimal high-performance bio filter material for all internal and external filters and offers an effective colonisation area of 270 m2 per litre of sera siporax.

KoiPro Bacteria House filter medium
KoiPro Bacteria House 24 pieces – filter mediumKoiPro Bacteria House is a highly porous ceramic filter medium for koi ponds, trickle filters and Bakki Shower. The 24 filter elements provide ample surface area for beneficial filter bacteria to colonise and help maintain stable water quality.KoiPro Bacteria House filter medium is a highly porous, ceramic filter material for koi ponds and garden ponds. The fine pore structure provides a large surface area for beneficial filter bacteria to colonise, which play an important role in breaking down pollutants such as ammonium/ammonia and nitrite. As a result, the filter medium supports stable biological filtration performance in the pond. Bacteria House has a water absorption rate of 80 %. Thanks to the microscopically small pores, bacteria can colonise the material quickly and break down organic pollutants in the pond water. At the same time, the porous structure also acts mechanically, as coarser organic debris is retained and can be further broken down during the filtration process. The filter medium is particularly well suited to Bakki Shower / trickle filters, but can also be used in other pond filters. One pack contains 24 ceramic filter elements, each approximately 38 × 38 mm thick and 160 mm long.Your benefits at a glanceHighly porous ceramic filter mediumSuitable for koi ponds and garden pondsSupports biological filtrationLarge surface area for beneficial filter bacteriaHelps break down ammonium/ammonia and nitriteWater absorption rate of approx. 80 %Can also be used as a mechanical filter mediumSuitable for Bakki Shower and trickle filtersAlso suitable for other pond filtersPromotes stable water qualityDoes not become clogged quickly, unlike conventional mediaContents: 24 piecesDimensions per element: approx. 38 × 38 × 160 mmInstructions for useBefore first use, briefly rinse the filter medium with pond water or clear water to remove any loose debris. Then place the Bacteria House elements in the filter so that they are well flushed or sprayed by the water. They are particularly effective when used in trickle filters or Bakki Shower systems, as there is plenty of oxygen available for the filter bacteria there.Zoo Roco TipBiological filter media work best when they are well supplied with oxygen and the pond filter is running continuously. After initial installation, the medium takes some time for sufficient filter bacteria to colonise it. During this running-in phase, water parameters should be checked regularly.

It is the perfect solution for reliably removing even the smallest dirt particles from the water and optimizing the water quality. Product features: Easy to use: The JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD can be easily inserted into the filter baskets of the JBL CristalProfi filter, where it replaces filter sponges.

High filtration performance: The filter fleece removes even the finest dirt particles from the water and ensures a visually clear water surface. It therefore improves visibility and contributes to a better quality of life for your aquarium inhabitants. One-off cleaning: The SYMECPAD can be washed out once if it is very dirty. However, it should be completely replaced after the first cleaning, as the fine structure of the fleece does not allow multiple cleaning cycles. Durable and efficient: Compared to filter sponges, filter ceramics or sintered glass material, the SYMECPAD is specially designed for finer filtration and enables the targeted removal of dirt particles that other filter materials may not be able to remove. Zoo Roco tips for use: Use the JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD as a fine filter material in your JBL CristalProfi filter to effectively remove even the smallest dirt particles. If the fleece is heavily soiled, you can wash it out once, but be sure to replace it after cleaning as it cannot be washed several times. To ensure constant filtration performance, we recommend replacing the filter fleece regularly and not using it for too long.

Dwarf water lily – Nymphaea Pygmaea Alba (18cm)
Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’ – dwarf water lily white-yellowThe dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’, with its white-yellow flowers, adds a serene, elegant touch to the water’s surface. Thanks to its compact growth habit, it is particularly suitable for smaller garden ponds or basins where a classic water lily would be too vigorous. Ideal if you want a delicate floral effect without the pond looking ‘overcrowded’.Dwarf water lily – suitable for smaller pondsFlower colour: white-yellowGrowth habit: compact, with a modest foliage and flower displaySuitable for: garden pond, mini-pond, pot/tank (depending on the setup)Technical dataBotanical name: Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’Common name: Dwarf water lilyFlower colour: white-yellowPlanting depth: between -10 and -40 cmFlowering period: from June to September Pot size: approx. 18 cmWith the dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’, you can create particularly stylish water features – even if your garden pond is rather small or you wish to plant in a mini-pond . Dwarf water lilies are designed to create the classic water lily effect in a limited space: the leaves float on the surface, whilst the delicate water lilies emerge from them.The ‘Alba’ variety impresses with a white-yellow flower colour, which has a very calming effect and can be easily combined with various pond and border plants. The choice of plants is particularly crucial in smaller ponds: water lilies that grow too vigorously can quickly dominate the surface. The dwarf water lily remains comparatively more compact and is therefore ideal if you want to keep the water’s surface deliberately open. At the same time, water lilies create a pleasant pond atmosphere: the flowers draw the eye to the water, and the floating leaves give the pond a natural ‘centre’. For good establishment, a stable position is important – ideally in a planting basket or a suitable container, so that the substrate and rhizome are securely in place and you can adjust the position if necessary.If you’re looking for subtle, high-quality blooms and want to opt for a compact water lily, Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’ is a suitable choice for a well-maintained, natural-looking pond design. Note on dispatch: We do our utmost to ensure that our plants arrive at your address healthy and undamaged. Despite taking the utmost care, plants may occasionally sustain minor damage during postal delivery or due to other unforeseen circumstances. This includes brown leaves as well as snapped stems. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: With dwarf water lilies, it’s worth placing the plant a little higher to begin with and then lowering it later if necessary – this usually helps it to grow more quickly. If you’re planting in a pot/mini-pond, make sure the water lily gets enough sun and isn’t shaded by plants around the edge.

EHEIM Substrate pro
Litre : 250ml
EHEIM Substrat pro (250ml) EHEIM Substrat pro is an optimised biological filter medium with perfect volume utilisation, long service life and maximum decomposition performance SUBSTRATpro consists of spherically sintered quartz. The spherical shape allows for a high bulk density. This means the volume in the filter (filter baskets or modules) can be fully utilised. Additionally, the optimised surface of the beads ensures intensive colonisation of the important cleaning bacteria. A dense bacterial lawn forms. Due to the high number of bacteria, nitrite load peaks are better reduced and the service life of the filter material is extended. EHEIM SUBSTRATpro is suitable for fresh and salt water, is washable and can be reused multiple times. Optimised biological filter medium made from sintered quartz High bulk density due to spherical shape (beads) Very dense bacterial colonisation Longer service life Better degradation with nitrite contamination Reusable multiple times (rinse carefully for cleaning) Suitable for fresh and salt water Tip:Never clean or replace all the biological filter material in one go (and never too thoroughly). The bacterial cultures must not be completely destroyed, otherwise recolonisation is delayed. For partial cleaning, the filter baskets in external filters and the filter modules in the aquaball and biopower internal filters are ideal.
