MarinePure High Performance Biofilter Media Gems - 90 gram box
MarinePure`s bio-media is the most technically advanced bio-media available today, designed to be a substrate for bio-filtration, specifically targeting ammonia and nitrite removal, minimizing denitrification.
MarinePure is the perfect place for beneficial bacteria to flourish in order to remove harmful fish wastes, eliminating ammonia and lower nitrates.
Thin Bio-Film Technology
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.
Features:
Thin Bio-Film Technology™
For freshwater and marine aquaria
Vast surface area
Open porosity
Designed for ammonia and nitrite removal
MarinePure is inert and will not harm aquarium inhabitants
Reduces tank maintenance
Allows a higher bioload
Fits into most filters
Use in sumps, under gravel, canister filters, etc.
Specifications:
Treats up to 70 gallons
Dimensions = .75" x .75" x .5" approximately

I only wish this product came with a media bag to make them easier to handle and maintain. I ended up having to purchase a media bag separately on Amazon.Hide

Need to rinse for a few days, “In my opinion”
REVIEW
Box shipped quick! Had enough for my Nuvo10. I rinsed for a few days in RO water and noticed a film and when I did I rinsed again till gone. It took roughly 3-4 days to clear and then put oil the back of my AIO. I will be putting in tigger pods this week.
