About this deal
Filter media has never been so exciting! Dave Wolfenden enthuses over a new product with endless possibilities.
It is easy for nitrifying bacteria to colonise virtually any surface so there is a huge range of alternative media for this aspect of water purification. Similarly there is a large number of different media for trapping suspended solids. What defines all these media is primarily their abilities to be cleaned. Sooner or later they will all get clogged up and cease to be affective.Most of aquarium bio filter media requires some preparation and it is reusability. However, once installed, the filter media will keep your pond clean and safe for fish and other living creatures for months to come. Its porous surface will filter debris and solid particles and cultivate beneficial bacteria colonies. Its cost is less than other filter media. And it can save you a lot of money.
It wouldn't hurt if you were to remove the media just to see how much you've actually got in total so you know if you need to add any more. As long as the media stays wet while you have it out of the Eazy Pod it will stay live so just add some pond water to the container you put the K1 into when you remove it.Anoxic filter - covered in detail greatly by Manky Sanke - my positive experience with it is covered in my thread on building un-planted anoxic filter During the extrusion process, Evolution Aqua add a range of minerals, along with magnesium, calcium, enzymes and salt to the raw material that is used to manufacture K+Media. The result means that K+Media will mature much faster than many other types of media.
