Biological Media (included):

• Eheim EHFI Mech 1L (Ceramic Noodles) - Mechanical filter medium for effective water treatment.Directly after the entry into the filter cycle, the water is swirled through the hollow ceramic material. Through this action, the coarse dirt particles are trapped. The pre-filtered water then continues its route through the other filter layers. EHEIM Mech is easy to clean and can be used several times.

• Eheim Substrat Pro 2L (Bio Media) - provides optimum biological decomposition of harmful substances. The colonized material will lower nitrites and nitrates even in heavy concentrations.

It has a neutral pH and can be used in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Made of sintered quartz material that has an extremely craggy surface area for intensive bacteria colonization
