Biohome Ultra 10KG

Biohome ultra is most suitable for sumps and large shower / trickle filters. It is a much larger, more porous version of the Biohome Standard media and has a porosity of over 50%. You can check out the extreme porosity of the Ultra media yourself by touching just the tip of a piece media to the surface of some water. You’ll be amazed at how fast the water is drawn up the entire length.

Biohome Ultra media is made from industrial grade material to ensure a long working life. Long working life and reliability are hallmarks of all Biohome products and used correctly Biohome Ultra media will outperform all ceramic trickle tower and shower media in the removal of ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. 

Biohome Ultra is an efficient biological filter media and good mechanical filtration must be provided to insure the water passing through it does not contain any debris that might clog it and reduce efficiency. It allows both nitrifying (aerobic) bacteria for reduction in ammonia and nitrite and denitrifying (anaerobic) bacteria for reduction in nitrate to grow on and through it’s unique structure.

This media is sold by the kilogram. 1 kilogram of media is approximately equal to approx. 1.3 cubic litre.

As all Biohome media is inert it allows you to raise or lower the pH to suit certain fish species without having a buffering effect.
