🧱 Recommended Media Setup (Inside Filter)
Mechanical media (sponge/filter wool) – traps debris first.
Red ceramic rings (biological media) – houses beneficial bacteria.
Chemical media (activated carbon, optional) – removes odor, toxins, and discoloration.
👉 Always place ceramic rings after mechanical media so they stay unclogged and effective.
🔧 How to Use
Rinse the ceramic rings gently in aquarium water before first use (to remove dust).
Place them inside the filter media tray/basket.
Use in combination with sponge, bio-balls, or filter wool for best results.
Allow 2–4 weeks for beneficial bacteria to colonize.
🧼 Maintenance
Rinse gently in tank water every 1–2 months (do not wash with tap water).
Never replace all ceramic rings at once – stagger replacements to keep bacteria alive.
Replace only when crumbling, clogged beyond cleaning, or after 3–5 years of use.
