Overview

The SICCE Filtration Media BioKer is designed for efficient biological filtration in both freshwater and marine aquariums. This specialized media enhances the growth of beneficial bacteria necessary for breaking down harmful ammonia and nitrites, ensuring a healthier environment for your aquatic life.

Key Features

• Effective Biological Filtration: The porous structure provides an extensive surface area that supports the growth of nitrifying bacteria.
• Versatile Use: Suitable for various types of aquariums, including freshwater and marine setups.
• Easy to Use: The media can be easily integrated into most filter systems, improving your aquarium's filtration efficiency.

Ideal Use Case

The SICCE BioKer is particularly beneficial for hobbyists looking to establish stable water conditions in their aquariums. It is ideal for new setups, as well as for established tanks requiring a boost in biological filtration capacity.

Setup Tips

1. Rinse the BioKer media with freshwater to remove any dust or fine particles before use.
2. Place the media in your filter's media compartment or a media bag, ensuring good water flow around it.
3. Regularly monitor your water parameters to observe the cycling process and ensure beneficial bacteria are establishing.

Maintenance

To maintain optimal filtration, it is recommended to replace or rinse the SICCE BioKer media every 6 to 12 months, depending on your aquarium's bioload. Avoid using tap water for rinsing, as chlorine can harm beneficial bacteria. Instead, use treated water or aquarium water to preserve the colony of bacteria.
