Fluval C3 Zeo CarbFiltering media for your fluval c backpack filter that willoptimal water conditions. In a closed aquarium, toxic compounds can accumulate very quickly, in fact, fish at no time stop generating waste throughout the day, therefore, continuous filtration is necessary to guarantee their survival. It not only serves to eliminate harmful elements from the tank, it also retains waste, achieves water oxygenation in addition to providing an ideal surface for the growth of nitrifying bacteria. A combination of mechanical, biological and chemical filter media is necessary to help youa very optimal water condition. Mechanical filtration: removes debris and particles through mechanical filters. Mechanical filtration is a type of filtration which does not alter the chemistry of the water, its objective consists of retaining and eliminating waste and debris, that is, eliminating fish excrement, sediments, un digested food, dust, etc.). Mechanical filtration will not only contribute to the overall look of your aquarium, but is also important to improving the effectiveness of the biological filtration of the filter. While the foam or mechanical pad filter solids as water passes through them, they also prevent these elements from reaching biological media and generating dead areas (places where bacteria can be accumulated). Dnitrifying bacteria, which are very advisable, will prefer higher oxygen levels as well as a clean surface to establish your colonies. Many species of bacteria that are not recommended, on the contrary, they will prefer surface areas with a low level of oxygen in addition to a high organic content. Chemical filtration: it will change the characteristics of your aquarium water through deliberate chemical reactions. Chemical filtration removes contaminants found in water such as chlorine, tap water impurities, cloudiness and other debris dissolved through chemical reactions. This provides a fairly practical way to maintain very high water quality for a long period. Active carbon: activated carbon is one of the most common chemical filter media. Water flows and passes through the filter while impurities are fixed on its surface. Together with other chemical filter media, over time the filter media will be saturated, so you should replace it approximately every month under normal conditions, or immediately if it is used for an isolated case (eliminate a residual medication or clean the cloudy water). Zeolita: ammonia continuously enters your aquarium by breathing the fish, the waste they produce and other biological processes, which is toxic if not controlled. When the ammonia levels of an aquarium are high (because ammonia levels exceed the capacity of existing beneficial bacteria), fish will generally show signs of stress: they will be able to have erratic behavior when swimming, difficult breathing, skin damage, flap damage, etc. Zeo carb: some filter media such as fluval zeo-carb includes a mixture which is half ammonia remover and half activated carbon which will be able to maintain the ammonia levels of your aquarium low in addition to eliminating molecules that provide turbidity to the water. This 2-in-1 product saves filter space and allows the user to place more filter media, to further improve transparency as well as water quality. Biological filtration: decomposes and eliminates toxins through bacterial action. This filtration is a natural action in which bacteria will reduce dangerous compounds to a less toxic way. This process known as the nitrogen cycle, involves the conversion of toxic ammonia into nitrite and subsequently into a less harmful nitrate. Biological filter media are then used to develop and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria that decompose ammonia. Biological filter media are available in porous rock form or rock glass-like material, ceramic cylinders, plastic balls, thick mesh-like material, and even slab-shaped.
