This creates a rough microscopic surface with peaks and craters where waste particles can collect and nitrifying bacteria can colonise more effectively. The minerals also act as a food source for bacteria, helping the filter mature faster compared with many standard filter media options.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 1rem 0px; color: #646464; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.328px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0)\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 1rem 0px; color: #646464; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.328px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0)\"\u003eEvolution Aqua K+ Media provides a total surface area of 1350m² per m³ and a protected surface area of 1,025m² per m³. This gives bacteria and bio-film a safe area to develop while still being exposed to oxygen and nutrients in moving bed filtration systems. Its 10.2mm diameter and 8mm length make it suitable for use in bead filters, conventional pond filters, marine filters, freshwater aquarium filters, and Nexus+ filters.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 1rem 0px; color: #646464; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.328px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0)\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 1rem 0px; color: #646464; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13.328px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0)\"\u003eThe design helps improve solids handling, increase flow rate, reduce back pressure on pumps, and support lower energy consumption.
