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.

It is a highly porous filter material made from sintered glass. The surface structure offers the important purification bacteria excellent colonisation conditions. The colonisable area amounts to 450 m² per litre. EHEIM SUBSTRAT is washable and can be reused.

The filter baskets in the external filters and filter modules in the internal filters aquaball and biopower are ideal for partial cleaning.Optimised bio-filter medium with perfect volume usage, long intervals between cleaning and top decomposition performance. SUBSTRATpro consists of pearl-shaped sintered glass. The spherical shape gives a high bulk density. Thus the whole of the volume in the filter (filter baskets or modules) can be utilised. Also the optimum surface of the beads provides intensive colonisation of the important purification bacteria. Due to the high number of bacteria, peak nitrite loads are more easily reduced and the maintenance intervals of the filter material are longer.EHEIM SUBSTRATpro is suitable for fresh and marine water, is washable and can be reused.

The EHEIM SUBSTRATpro+O2xygen - a filter medium that
revolutionises biological water treatment. This latest development,
based on the tried and tested SUBSTRATpro, combines first-class
materials with stateof-the-art technology.The secret
behind the extraordinary effect of EHEIM SUBSTRATpro+O2xygen lies in the
gemstone mineral tourmaline it contains. Thanks to its unique
pyroelectric properties, it generates electron-activated oxygen (super
oxygen O2-) on contact with water, which optimises the oxygen supply in
the filter substrate and creates ideal conditions for filter bacteria.
This stimulates the metabolic processes in the aquarium and activates
the vitality of fish, plants and the entire aquatic ecosystem. Efficient
removal of pollutants - the spherical structure enables a high bulk
density and makes optimum use of the available filter space. With a
porosity of 45 %, the ceramic material provides a huge surface area for
beneficial microorganisms. The combination of a large colonisation
surface and activated oxygen breaks down pollutants faster and more
efficiently - for crystal-clear water and a healthy ecosystem.Durable
& sustainable - the filter material is specially heattreated at
over 1,000 °C, which makes it particularly stable and durable and
guarantees outstanding resistance. It is pHneutral, reusable and
suitable for fresh and salt water.Advantages of the EHEIM SUBSTRATpro+O2xygenHigh-quality material: ceramic filter mass made of sili-cates and tourmalineInnovative technology: Tourmaline produces electronactivated oxygen (super oxygen O2-) for efficient oxygen supplyHigh porosity of 45%: for an above-average settlement area of filter bacteriapH-neutral: Does not affect the water chemistry and ensures a stable, healthy aquarium climateFast degradation of pollutants: Allows extremely fast biological degradation of impuritiesPromotion of metabolism: Activated oxygen strengthens fish, plants and the entire ecosystemDurable and robust: Burned by extreme heat (over 1.000°C), the mate-rial offers exceptional durabilityCan be used several times (rinse carefully for cleaning)Suitable for fresh and sea water
