aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra
Size: 18*20mm

The aquaLife Bio Ball Ultra, a far infrared (FIR) biological media made from tourmaline with a 66% porous ratio, offers several advantages over other aquarium filtration:

1. Large Surface Area for Biological Filtration:

� The aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra provides a huge surface area due to its dimensions and 66% porous ratio. This extensive surface area supports colonizing huge populations of beneficial bacteria essential for the nitrogen cycle. These bacteria convert harmful ammonia and nitrite into less toxic nitrate, ensuring a healthy and stable environment for aquatic life.

2. Far Infrared Radiation Benefits:

� Tourmaline within the aquaLife BIO Bal Ultra emits far infrared radiation, which stimulates the metabolism of aquatic organisms and beneficial bacteria. This enhancement of biological filtration leads to better water quality and healthier fish.

3. Water Activation:

� Tourmaline�s ability to ionize water in the aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra releases negative ions that help break down organic matter more effectively, resulting in clearer water and reduced organic buildup in the aquarium.

4. Stable and Durable Material:

� The aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra is made from durable tourmaline, which is resistant to breakdown over time. This ensures that the media remains effective for extended periods, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

5. Enhanced Mineralization:

� The FIR emitted by the aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra enhances mineralization, aiding in the release of essential minerals into the water, which benefits the growth and health of aquatic plants and organisms.

6. Improved Water Circulation:

� The porous nature of the aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra allows for better water flow through the structure, optimizing biological filtration efficiency by providing more sites for bacterial colonization and nutrient exchange.

7. Space-Efficient Design:

� Despite its compact dimensions, the aquaLife BIO Ball Ultra is designed to maximize the available surface area for bacterial growth. This makes it an efficient choice for various filtration systems, including sumps, canister filters, and trickle filters, without compromising filtration capacity.

The aquaLife Bio House Ultra combines a large surface area, far infrared radiation, and the unique properties of tourmaline, making it an outstanding choice for maintaining a clean, healthy, and stable aquarium environment.
