Active filter carbon with a high performance level – especially after treatment with medications
EHEIM AKTIV is acid washed and activated for automatic water absorption (active surface area 1200 m²/g). Thus, it very quickly binds harmful chemical substances like pesticides, medical treatment residues and other substances and retains them. The water in the aquarium will turn crystal clear. Its use is particularly important after treating the livestock with medications.
EHEIM AKTIV should only be used for a limited amount of time (ca. 4 weeks) and then removed or replaced. In the filter’s layering set-up EHEIM AKTIV should be used directly after the mechanical (e.g. EHEIM MECH or MECHpro) and the biological filter media (e.g. EHEIM SUBSTRATpro) in the net bag provided.
Active carbon for self-activating adsorption
Quickly binds chlorine, pesticides and other chemical substances
Use e.g. after new tank installation or treatment with medications
Use only for a limited period of time (ca. 4 weeks)
Suitable for fresh and marine water
Tip:Only use adsorptive filter media for a few weeks, as the harmful substances are only attached and can loosen after some time and be reintroduced into the water. At the very least they should be changed regularly. Normally adsorptive filtration is only necessary during aquarium set-up or after treatments with medications.

Generally speaking, mechanical filter media trap larger dirt particles. Biological filter media, on the other hand, provide the correct conditions for the colonisation of bacteria cultures: the purification bacteria feed off the dirt particles and convert them. Above all, in this way clear, healthy water and stabile water values are arrived at in the aquarium.Our latest development is a combination filter medium, which simultaneously carries out both mechanical and biological functions. EHEIM bioMECH Mechanical-biological filter medium for combined water treatmentbioMECH has been cleverly designed: dirt-trapping pockets capture and retain large and small dirt particles. At the same time the subtely designed pore structure provides colonisation for the purification bacteria and thus ensures reliable biological decomposition. The material is pH-neutral and does not contain water hardeners. EHEIM bioMECH is washable and reusable many times over.
Specially designed filter medium for simultaneous mechanical and biological water purification
The material is pH-neutral and without water hardeners
Reusable (wash out carefully, in order not to destroy the bacteria cultures)

Filter cartridges for mechanical and biological filtration
Dirt particles become trapped in the porous foam material. At the same time, the material offers a large colonisation surface area for the purification bacteria. Even after a short maturation period the foam cartridges perform not only mechanical water purification, but also biological decomposition of harmful substances.
The cartridges are reusable several times over. To clean them, simply rinse them and squeeze them out, so that the bacteria cultures are not completely destroyed.

Mechanical filter media trap suspended matter and dirt particles. This takes place at various stages: Firstly, before the water flows through the rest of the cleaning process, EHEIM MECH and EHEIM MECHpro provide high efficiency.EHEIM FIX is the ideal material to use as a separation layer between the mechanical and biological filter media . And for fine filtration at the end, before the water returns into the aquarium, EHEIM SYNTH is the ideal material to use.EHEIM FIXPrefilter material and fine filtration – as a separation layer between the mechanical and biological filter media This specially formed filter material is for use after the layer of EHEIM MECH or MECHpro. EHEIM FIX acts as a separation layer between the mechanical and biological filter media. This is where the larger dirt particles are trapped, thus removing them from the water before entry into the biologically functioning filter layers. To fit an EHEIM external filter, we also offer EHEIM coarse filter pads to achieve the same result.

Filter carbon for clear aquarium water – especially for new tank installations
EHEIM KARBON is particularly suitable for water purification during the set-up phase of the aquarium. In particular, chlorine from mains water and other chemical substances, which can get into the aquarium during installation, are safely taken up. EHEIM KARBON should be used for a short time (ca. 4 weeks) in the layering set-up after the mechanical (e.g. EHEIM MECH or MECHpro) and the biological filter media (e.g. EHEIM SUBSTRATpro) in the net bag provided.
Binds chlorine and other chemical substances
Use e.g. during set-up or after treatment with medications
Use for a short period (ca. 4 weeks)
Only suitable for fresh water
Tip:Only use adsorptive filter media for a few weeks, as the harmful substances are only attached and can loosen after some time and be reintroduced into the water. At the very least they should be changed regularly. Normally adsorptive filtration is only necessary during aquarium set-up or after treatments with medications.

The main task of biological filter media is to offer the best colonisation onditions for the bacteria cultures, so that after a short time a bacteria lawn develops. The bacteria feed on dirt particles of all kind and convert substances critical for the aquarium.
After the first cleaning process by the mechanical filter media (e.g. EHEIM MECH or MECHpro) the biological filtration is the most important. It provides for clear, healthy water and stabile water values. That’s why we have invested a lot of research work into the development of biological filter media.
Tip:Never clean or change all the filter media together in one operation (and never clean too rigorously). The bacteria cultures must not be completely destroyed, otherwise re-colonisation will be retarded. The filter baskets in the external filters and filter modules in the internal filters aquaball and biopower are ideal for partial cleaning.EHEIM LAVNatural volcanic rock for biological filtration
EHEIM LAV consists of volcanic rock and is a natural product. Its rough, highly porous surface structure provides the purification bacteria with very good colonisation conditions. Because it is a natural product the granulate and small pieces in the packs are of different sizes. EHEIM LAV can be washed and reused. It is suitable for fresh and marine water.

EHEIM MECHPrefilter material made from hollow ceramic rings for trapping large dirt particles Directly after entering the filtration cycle, water is swirled through the hollow ceramic rings. Larger dirt particles thus sink to the bottom. The treat-ed prefiltered water then continues its way through the other filter layers. EHEIM MECH is easy to clean and reusable.
