Nano-Tech Bio-Sphere
Negative Ion
- Ceramic base, combined with special ingredient made with a combination of minerals that releases negative ions
- Negative ions help with neutralizing water, and maintaining pH between 7.0-7.2
- Stimulates growth of nitrifying bacteria colonies and improves water clarity
Far Infrared (FIR)
- Ceramic base, combined with special ingredient made with a combination of tourmaline, maifanitum, actinolite and volcanic rocks minerals
- Minerals that releases far infrared (FIR) with wavelength between 4-12 μm, helps
with water clarity and removes foul odor - A weak 0.06mA circuit released by tourmaline, helps breaking down chlorine in
tap water used for water change
Ca/Mg Infused
- Ceramic base, infused with beneficial minerals including Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, Iron, Boron and Zinc
- Helps replenish water with above mentioned minerals, which is essential for many freshwater fishes such as Discus
- Stimulates growth of nitrifying bacteria colonies and improves water clarity
Chitin Infused
- Ceramic base, combined with special ingredient made with a combination of tourmaline, maifanitum, actinolite and volcanic rocks minerals
- Minerals that releases far infrared (FIR) with wavelength between 4-12 μm, helps
with water clarity and removes foul odor - A weak 0.06mA circuit released by tourmaline, helps breaking down chlorine in
tap water used for water change
Comes in 2 sizes (1Kg and 2Kg boxes)
The Bio-Spheres/Bio-Blocks excel at establishing bacterial colonies in forms of Bio-Nano Composite Films, it allows different species of bacteria and fungi to grow on its large surface area, such as nitrifying acteria (including species of the genera Nitrosomonas, Nitrosococcus, Nitrobacter and Nitrococcus), yeast, phototrophic prokaryotes, etc.
- Designed specifically for freshwater aquariums only (not suitable for marine aquariums);
- Widely used in freshwater aquariums in China and SE Asia for over a decade;
- Each variant provides different benefits and features for different types of freshwater aquariums;
- Nano-Tech Bio-Spheres are made with inert ceramic material, with added ingredients to provide different characteristics;
- All Nano-Tech Bio-Spheres are fired in oven for over 6 hours, resulting in a very strong and stable bio media that last for years.
Time-tested technology
Adopted from the sewage treatment industry, the Nano-Tech Bio-Media uses a proprietary technology to form the inert ceramic beads into a manageable shape (spheres, blocks, plugs) for household aquariums
The Bio-Spheres excel at establishing bacterial colonies in forms of Bio-Nano Composite Films, it allows different species of bacteria and fungi to grow on its large surface area, such as nitrifying acteria (including species of the genera Nitrosomonas, Nitrosococcus, Nitrobacter and Nitrococcus), yeast, phototrophic prokaryotes, etc.
The Bio-Spheres are carefully manufactured to ensure its quality, the well-designed porous structure of the Bio-Spheres create the ideal living conditions and environment for bacterial colonies, but will not be decomposed by the bacterial colonies that grows within it.
With an ultra-high surface cross-cutting ratio and filtration area, each Bio-Sphere has up to 54m² surface area (580ft²) for the establishment of bacterial colonies, which allows it to effectively control the quality and stability of the water column.
Small size, high efficiency
The Bio-Spheres should be cleaned or replaced every 6 months for optimal results, however when cleaning/replacing old Bio-Spheres, DO NOT replace all of them at the same time. Clean/replace half of the Bio-Spheres such that there are sufficient bacterial colonies remain to reestablish themselves in the newly cleaned/replaced Bio-Spheres.
Easy maintenance
Putting all Nano-Tech Bio-Sphere in mesh bag make it easy to maintenance and save huge place for other equipments.
Can be used directly in main tank, or in sump, different types of filters including canister filters,hang-on-back filters, etc.
