Optimised bio-filter medium with perfect volume usage, long
intervals between cleaning and top decomposition
performance.
SUBSTRATpro consists of pearl-shaped sintered glass. The spherical
shape gives a high bulk density. Thus the whole of the volume in
the filter (filter baskets or modules) can be utilised. Also the
optimum surface of the beads provides intensive colonisation of the
important purification bacteria.
Due to the high number of bacteria, peak nitrite loads are more
easily reduced and the maintenance intervals of the filter material
are longer.
EHEIM SUBSTRATpro is suitable for fresh and marine water, is
washable and can be reused.
- Optimised bio-filter medium made from sintered glass
- High bulk density due to spherical shape (beads)
- Very dense colonisation of bacteria
- Longer intervals between cleaning
- Better reduction of nitrite loads
- Reusable (rinse carefully to clean)
- Suitable for fresh and marine water
Tip:
Never clean or change all the filter media together in one
operation (and never clean too rigorously). The bacteria cultures
must not be completely destroyed, otherwise re-colonisation will be
retarded. The filter baskets in the external filters and filter
modules in the internal filters aquaball
and biopower are
ideal for partial cleaning.
