Bio Ball 76mm – Biological Filter Media

The Bio Ball 76mm is a high-quality biological filtration media designed for both freshwater and marine aquariums. Its unique structure provides a large surface area for beneficial bacteria colonization, helping to break down harmful ammonia and nitrite into less toxic nitrate. Lightweight, durable, and reusable, bio balls are one of the most effective and low-maintenance filter media available.

🌊 Key Features

✅ Large surface area – 76mm hollow ball design with ridges and grooves maximizes space for beneficial bacteria growth.

✅ Durable & long-lasting – Made from high-quality non-toxic plastic that never breaks down in water.

✅ Improves biological filtration – Supports nitrifying bacteria that convert harmful ammonia and nitrite into safer nitrate.

✅ Reusable & easy to clean – Simply rinse in tank water during maintenance (do not use tap water).

✅ Versatile usage – Can be used in sump filters, canister filters, overhead filters, trickle filters, or pond systems.

✅ Oxygen-friendly design – Open structure allows excellent water flow and oxygen exchange for efficient bacteria activity.

🐠 Suitable For

• Tank Type: Freshwater aquariums, marine aquariums, and ponds.

• Fish Types: Ideal for community tanks, cichlid tanks, planted aquariums, shrimp setups, and koi ponds.

• Filter Systems: Best used in sumps, trickle towers, overhead filters, and large canister filters.

🧱 Recommended Setup (Media Order in Filter)

1. Mechanical media (sponge/filter wool) – to trap dirt before water reaches the bio balls.

2. Bio Balls (biological media) – for beneficial bacteria growth.

3. Chemical media (optional – activated carbon, resins, etc.) – for polishing water.

👉 Place bio balls in a high-flow oxygen-rich area for maximum efficiency.

🔧 How to Use

1. Rinse bio balls in tank water before first use.

2. Place them inside your filter chamber, sump, or trickle tower.

3. Ensure water flows freely around the balls (do not pack too tightly).

4. Maintain consistent flow and oxygenation for best bacterial activity.

🧼 Maintenance

• Rinse gently in aquarium water every 1–2 months to remove debris.

• Never wash with soap or tap water (chlorine will kill bacteria).

• Rotate sections of media during cleaning – never clean all bio balls at once.
