Bio Balls 46mm

Bio Balls (46mm) are highly efficient biological filter media designed to boost beneficial bacteria growth in aquariums and ponds. Made from durable, non-toxic plastic, these hollow, lightweight balls provide a massive surface area for nitrifying bacteria to colonize, ensuring clean, stable, and healthy water for fish and plants.

🌊 Key Features

✅ Promotes biological filtration – Helps break down harmful ammonia and nitrites into safer nitrates.

✅ Improves oxygen exchange – Hollow design enhances aeration and water circulation.

✅ Easy to clean – Simply rinse in aquarium water during maintenance (never use tap water).

✅ Versatile use – Suitable for freshwater, marine tanks, and ponds.
