Ceramic Noodles Aquarium

Ceramic noodles and other biomedia shouldn t break down.

Ceramic noodles aquarium. Ceramic rings offer the perfect home for the beneficial bacteria in your aquarium. If you wanted to use bio balls with a different filter media then go right ahead. These noodles provide a housing material for bacteria which form the major part of the biological filtration in your fish tank. Ceramic noodles can carry both nitrifying bacteria on the surface and denitrifying bacteria inside.

Favorite add to cave for spawning fish. I have been using ceramic noodles in my filter for the last 4 months and i am wondering if i can use the ceramic noodles from my current filter. You can use more than one type of media in your filter. The more surface that is available the more bacteria that your filter media can hold.

Hi all i have been keeping tropical fish for only 6 months currently i only have a small tank 2ft but tomorrow i am about to pick up a 4ft tank. Ceramic rings increase their surface area through tiny little pores.

Be very carfull when adding stuff that is not made spacifically for tanks. Now you may be thinking. Aqua one bionood ceramic noodles are a biological filter media for use in aquarium filtration systems. The only reason i would replace it is to switch over to seachem matrix.

Bioballs are designed to be used in trickle filters aka wet dry. This tub comes with a pullstring bag to be used for keeping noodles together inside your filter. I still have some old fluval stuff from about twelve years ago that is still fine. The ceramics will be fine only if it is glazed inside and out and if there are no cracks in the glazing.

You see beneficial bacteria need a surface to cling to. Ceramics are just baked mud exposure to water over time makes ceramic break down and all those chemicals will leach into your water.
