    Healthy biological filtration is the key to a successful aquarium, and Aqua Natural Live Filter Media delivers it from day one. Pre-seeded with beneficial bacteria, this media provides an instant boost to your tank, helping maintain crystal-clear water and stable water chemistry. Whether you’re cycling a new aquarium, upgrading your filtration, deep cleaning, or supporting a higher bio-load, Aqua Natural Live Filter Media keeps your system balanced so your tank inhabitants can thrive.

    What Is Aqua Natural Live Filter Media?

    Aqua Natural Live Filter Media is made from highly porous material, offering a massive surface area for beneficial bacteria to thrive. Pre-seeded with live bacteria, it works immediately to support the nitrogen cycle, breaking down harmful ammonia and nitrite into less toxic nitrate for a stable, healthy aquarium.

    Why Choose Live Filter Media?

    Dry ceramic media can take weeks to develop bacteria colonies, leaving your aquarium vulnerable in the meantime. Liquid additives provide a quicker boost, but the effect is temporary and dependent on finding a surface to colonize. Aqua Natural Live Filter Media combines the strengths of both approaches. It arrives pre-seeded with live bacteria and built on a durable, high-surface area structure, giving you immediate results and reliable, long-term stability for a healthy aquarium.

    How to Use Aqua Natural Live Filter Media

    1) Important Notes Before You Get Started: 

    • Do not rinse the media and do not let it dry out. You must use immediately after draining.
    • Make sure all aquarium water is dechlorinated before use. Chlorine will kill the beneficial bacteria.

    2) Open the can and drain the storage liquid.

    3) Place the media in a media bag or tray where water flows through it.

    4) Install the media bag/tray in a canister filter, sump, hang-on-back filter, media reactor, or similar.

    5) Run the media alongside mechanical and chemical filtration for best results.
