MarinePure Gems - 90 Gram Overview MarinePure is the perfect place for beneficial bacteria to flourish in order to remove harmful fish wastes. It will eliminate ammonia and nitrites and lower nitrates. MarinePure's bio-media is the most technically advanced bio-media available today. Features A 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 medias, thus utilizing the most surface area for beneficial bacterial growth. Benefits Better value due to high performance Reduced tank maintenance Allows for higher fish loads Can use a smaller filtration footprint More consistent water chemistry Spheres are Easy to shape MarinePure is inert and will not harm aquarium inhabitants. Application Used in tank or in sumpsUsed in canister and DIY filtersUsed in trickle, shower, or waterfall filtersUsed in hang on back filtersSpecifications Contents: 90 Grams of approximately 3/4" diameter cubes. Surface Area: 135 sq. meters (1,450sq. ft) per 90 grams How to Use MarinePure Filter Media Rinse new media under tap water to remove any loose particles.
