Filter Media

Aquarium filter media are categorized by their function into three main types: ● mechanical, which traps physical debris ● biological, which hosts beneficial bacteria for the nitrogen cycle ● chemical, which removes dissolved impurities, medications, and odors These categories of media work together within a filter system to keep aquarium water clean, clear, and healthy for fish and other inhabitants.
