Enjoy superior water quality as you aquascape your aquarium. MarinePure Biofilter Media Rock provides a clever 2-in-1 solution providing ideal habitat for beneficial ammonia-, nitrite- and nitrate-removing bacteria AND attractive aquarium landscape material. Technically advanced ceramic bio-filter media with Thin Bio-Film Technology™ provides ideal conditions for efficient biological filtration essential for aquarium water quality. Excellent for freshwater cichlid aquariums and marine aquariums even reef setups!
MarinePure Biofilter Media Rock is lightweight and easy to shape, making it a smart alternative to base rock or live rock used in marine aquariums. Pest free and phosphorous free.
Small measures approximately 7" x 5" x 5" high and Medium measures approximately 7" x 7" x 6" high.
Thin Bio-Film Technology Advantage
- Combination of vast surface area and open/interconnected pores allow 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 media, thus utilizing the most surface area for beneficial bacterial growth.
MarinePure Biofilter Media Rock Compared to Live Rock
- Greater Bio-Filtration Capacity
- Lighter
- Higher Surface Area
- Less Water Displacement
- Pest Free
- Small MarinePure Biofilter Media Rock = 10 lbs of live rock
- Medium MarinePure Biofilter Media Rock = 24 lbs of live rock
Instructions
MarinePure is designed to be a substrate for bio-filtration, specifically to target ammonia and nitrite removal and to minimize nitrates. MarinePure is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater environments. MarinePure can be used fully submerged or in trickle/shower filters.
For Removal of Ammonia and Nitrites (Nitrification)
- Initial rinse of media with water removes surface particulate created during shipping. If tap water is used, perform second rinse with tank water to remove chlorine.
- Locate media in filter, sump, under gravel bed, anywhere in the tank or as part of a reef structure. Locating within the flow of the water will give the most efficient results.
- NOTE: The product is easily shaped using a handsaw or coarse sand paper. Make sure to rinse particulate before placing in tank. Wear a dust mask to avoid breathing in particulate.
- Mechanical filtration of water, such as with matting, is recommended prior to water entering MarinePure product.
Maintenance for Flow-Through Filter Systems
Periodic backwashing or rinsing using tank water suggested every 3 months or as frequently as necessary.
For Removal of Nitrates (Denitrification)
- Initial rinse of media with water removes surface particulate created during shipping. If tap water is used, perform second rinse with tank water to remove chlorine.
- Locate media in a passive location such as in a sump, under gravel bed, or as part of a reef structure.
- NOTE: If desired, the product can be easily shaped using a handsaw or coarse sand paper. Make sure to rinse off particulate before placing in tank.
- Wear a dust mask to avoid breathing in particulate.
Maintenance for Passive Filter Systems
If necessary, backwash and / or rinse as described above.
- Although product should be self-cleaning, applications and use vary.
- A weak acid can be used for cleaning, but time in acid conditions should be minimized. Make sure to wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment when using acid.
