Sera Siporax Professional[Volume - 500ml]

Maximize Biological Filtration Efficiency The original sera siporax Professional is designed for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums, as well as ponds. Regardless of the filter type (internal, external, or trickle), it optimizes the surface area necessary for biological filtration and provides an ideal substrate for the establishment of essential filter bacteria. The filtration and decomposition processes that occur at the bottom of natural bodies of water are crucial. Micro-organisms process organic waste, making it accessible as nutrients for aquatic plants, while effectively removing pollutants like ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate. In nature, minimal waste is generated per volume of water, allowing for sufficient micro-organism populations on the existing substrate. However, an aquarium is a compact ecosystem, making it essential to maximize the settling area to ensure complete and safe breakdown of organic residues. sera has achieved this with their innovative high-performance filter medium, sera siporax. Unlike other filter rings on the market, sera siporax is made from sintered glass. This unique material features a distinctive three-dimensional pore structure that significantly increases the surface area. Additionally, the fine pores create the perfect conditions for bacteria to thrive and decompose pollutants. Since it operates as an interconnected system, the bacteria are continuously flushed by water, enabling them to break down contaminants with optimal efficiency. Moreover, the exceptional pore configuration facilitates self-cleaning of the substrate, resulting in extended filter lifespan.
