Mantis Bio Sphere – 2kg Box
Advanced Ceramic Biological Filtration Media
The Mantis Bio Sphere is manufactured from inert ceramic material with an advanced open-flow architecture, providing one of the largest usable surface areas available for biological filtration. Compared to conventional filter media, Mantis Bio Spheres deliver higher efficiency with less media required to effectively treat NH4-N (ammonia) and NO3-N (nitrate).
Ultra-High Surface Area for Beneficial Bacteria
Each sphere features a microporous surface structure with an extremely large specific surface area. This makes it ideal for the growth of beneficial microorganisms, forming a stable and highly active biofilm that supports long-term biological filtration performance.
-
Efficient ammonia and nitrate reduction
-
Rapid bacterial colonisation
-
Long-lasting, chemically inert ceramic construction
3D Open Structure for Maximum Water Flow
The unique three-dimensional (3D) void structure, created by the spacing between spheres, allows excellent water flow and oxygen exchange. This improves filtration efficiency while reducing clogging and dead spots.
Mantis Bio Spheres also provide an excellent base for sponge growth, micro-fauna development, and even coral frags in reef systems.
Versatile Use in All Filtration Systems
Mantis Bio Spheres are suitable for use in a wide range of filtration applications:
-
Sumps
-
Trickle filters
-
Wet / dry filters
-
Hang-on-back filters
-
Directly in aquariums or ponds
Suitable for freshwater, marine, and pond systems.
