ADA BIO RIO G

ADA Bio Rio G 1lt.

Bio Rio G is a sintered glass filter media suitable for biological filtration. Because it is porous, and its surface area is quite big, many filtration microorganisms settle and demonstrate high filtration performance. The pieces are irregular. And when a filtration tank is filled with them, gaps are easily to be formed. So they hardly cause clogging. Because it is unlikely to impact water conditions such as pH and hardness of water, a long term stable filtration can be achieved.

New biological filter media, Bio Rio G has been released from ADA Nature Aquarium.

Bio Rio G is a sintered glass filter media suitable for biological filtration. Because it is porous and its surface area is quite big, many filtration microorganisms settle and demonstrate high filtration performance. The pieces are irregular, and when a filtration tank is filled with them, gaps tend to be formed. So they hardly cause clogging. Because it is unlikely to impact water conditions such as pH and hardness of water, a long term stable filtration can be achieved. Please utilize it as replacement filter media for external filters such as Super Jet Filter series in combination with NA Carbon.

In addition, the filter medium can be used as substrate in DOOA Paluda 30/60 to increase humidity.

Usage

• Lightly rinse Bio-Rio G before use
• When used in combination with a pot filter, it is recommended to use a mesh bag

Each filter has three roles in a planted aquarium. In order of importance:

Filter Guide:

NITRIFICATION
It is the most important! Toxic and algae-causing ammonia in the aquarium must be decomposed. As fast as possible. Billions of bacteria growing in the filter convert ammonia into nitrite and then nitrate.

WATER CIRCULATION
Nutrients (plant food and CO2) must reach the plants. Solid decomposition products should be kept afloat. Good performance is essential.

WATER TREATMENT
Solid decomposition products must be physically removed from the aquarium and decomposed in a filter or removed during cleaning.

For a filter to fully perform all three roles, it must meet several criteria. Ideally suitable to have a bucket of the right size to store the right amount of filter media. The filter material contained in it must be of adequate quality and variety. The pump in the filter must have sufficient capacity. The filter should be easy to clean so that the cumbersome process does not deter the aquarist from regular maintenance. Plus, the filter needs to be reliable; no one wants to flood a living room or office due to a cracked tap or joint.
