Description: MarinePure Ceramic BioMedia Filter Gems 90g MarinePure is designed to be a substrate for bio-filtration, specifically to target ammonia and nitrite removal (nitrification) and to minimize nitrates (denitrification). MarinePure is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater (marine) environments. MarinePure can be used fully submerged or in trickle/shower filters. It should not be used in moving bed filters. MarinePure™ Gems are the perfect way to add biofiltration to smaller systems. Designed to fit in hang on the back filters, cannister filters and in the back of all-in-one nano systems. Each package is suitable for up to a 70 gallon system saltwater. Retail Use: Spheres are a great way to help your customers get started. Place them in your already established systems and when they are ready to set up, a couple of the spheres will help jump start their cycle. You can also use a good bacterial to pre-seed any of the Marine Pure products.
