Marine Pure Bio-Filter Media Gems

Marine Pure Bio-Filter Media Gems

900g

MarinePure Gems are the alternatives designed for small, powered filters. Gems are finished with the same durable shell as MarinePure spheres and pods. Due to their small size Gems are ideal for use in internal or hang-on-back filters where space is limited. Gems are sold in 90g packs, and it is recommended to use at least one pack in a filter so as to create enough surface area for biological filtration.

MarinePure® is the perfect place for beneficial bacteria to flourish in order to remove harmful fish wastes.

MarinePure is designed to be a substrate for bio-filtration, specifically to target ammonia and nitrite removal (nitrification) and to minimize nitrates (denitrification). MarinePure is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater (marine) environments. MarinePure can be used fully submerged or in trickle/shower filters. It should not be used in moving bed filters. It will eliminate ammonia and lower nitrates.

Thin Bio-Film Technology™

The combination of vast surface area and open/interconnected pores allows a thin bio-film to develop. This thin film allows bacteria to flourish because necessary nutrients are immediately available. With the open pores, old dead bio-film is easily flushed from the media and will not plug the media. Water flows through the media, not around as with other denser medias, thus utilizing the most surface area for beneficial bacterial growth.
