Edit Product DESCRIPTION

Proper filtration is an extremely important process that every aquarist should take care of. This action has a direct impact on the functioning of the entire reservoir, including water quality and the development of fauna and flora. There are several types of filtration, the most popular of which is the mechanical method. This process can be performed with the use of the presented filter sponge inserts in cardboard boxes. It is worth knowing what mechanical filtration is – its main assumption is thorough cleaning of water from impurities and suspensions that can be seen with the naked eye. These include, among others, fish excrement, food debris, plant debris and other organic particles floating in the water. We invite you to familiarize yourself with all models of sponge cartridges for filters in Aquael manufacturer’s cartons.

THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF MECHANICAL SPONGE CARTRIDGES FOR FILTERS IN CARDBOARD BOXES – OPERATION AND ADVANTAGES

Mechanical filtering is like pouring coffee and grounds through gauze. The drink itself will flow through the material without any problems, while the remnants will settle on its surface. Mechanical filtration is the separation of the solid from the liquid phase as it flows through a porous medium. This process is of great importance in the proper care of the aquarium, as it prevents unsightly turbidity of the water and its green color. Such action has a direct impact on the water quality and the visual side of the reservoir. In addition, all kinds of fish and plant species perform much better in a well-cleaned tank. Dirt falling into the filter is trapped on the sponges, which should also be regularly cleaned. Failure to service this type of accessory may restrict water flow through the filter,

It is worth knowing that sponges are among the most universal filtration media, and additionally they fulfill their task perfectly. They guarantee precise cleaning of aquarium water, do not adversely affect the pH value and can be used in any aquarium. In addition, they do not react with water and other cartridges, which greatly facilitates the configuration of the filtration. They are completely safe for living organisms and do not adversely affect their development and functioning. What’s more, sponge cartridges for filters are available at an attractive price, thanks to which every aquarist can afford them and often replace them to maintain high efficiency and effectiveness of mechanical filtration of the tank.

The presented Aquael sponge filter cartridges come in many variants to choose from, so everyone will certainly find the perfect Edit Products that will meet their individual needs and expectations. All models are made of the highest quality phenol-free sponge, ensuring excellent filtration results. What’s more, they are an excellent substrate for nitrifying bacteria, thanks to which they also perform biological filtration consisting in removing from the water accumulating invisible nitrogen compounds, which are excreted by fish in the form of proteins and urea. Some of them are absorbed by plants and the rest is broken down by microorganisms.

Periodic cleaning of mechanical filters is extremely important and the process itself should be carried out as often as necessary. The frequency itself largely depends on the organisms inhabiting the aquarium. Some fish have a greater tendency to dirty the tank, so cleaning the filters should be done once a week. It is worth remembering that if only one filter is used in the tank, it also performs the function of mechanical filtration, therefore it is not advisable to open and rinse it frequently. Additionally, in small aquariums with small internal filters, which play a biological and mechanical role, a similar problem may arise, as cleaning them too often may cause an imbalance in the biological balance in the tank.
