Maxspect Nano-Tech Ca/Mg Infused Bio-Spheres 1kg

Maxspect Nano-Tech Ca/Mg Infused Bio-Spheres are a ceramic filter media for freshwater aquariums, supplied as a 1 kg pack. They are designed to replenish essential minerals in the water while giving nitrifying bacteria a stable surface to colonise. They suit freshwater hobbyists who want biological filtration and mineral support from a single media.

Key Benefits

• Replenishes calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, boron and zinc in the aquarium water.
• Supports many freshwater fish that rely on these minerals, such as Discus.
• Stimulates the growth of nitrifying bacteria colonies, which are the backbone of a healthy biological filter.
• Improves water clarity.
• Strong, stable ceramic construction that lasts for years.

What Makes It Different

The spheres are made from inert ceramic materials. Added ingredients give the media its different characteristics. The spheres are then fire cured above 2300°F (about 1260°C), which produces a very strong and stable bio-media. The ceramic base is infused with beneficial minerals, so it works as both a biological media and a mineral source.

Suitable For

• Freshwater aquariums.
• Keepers of mineral-dependent freshwater fish such as Discus.
• Aquarists who want a long-lasting biological filter media.

Recommended for freshwater aquariums only. It is not recommended for marine set-ups.
