Ceramic Noodles In Marine Tank

Using ceramic rings couldn t be easier.

Ceramic noodles in marine tank. Water from aquarium is pushed into the sump where it removes waste using mechanical filtration media toxic components are removed in biological chamber hence clean water flows back to the aquarium using gravity if it is an overhead sump filter. The only reason i would replace it is to switch over to seachem matrix. Terracotta is made with the same principal as ceramic. A sump is not truly a filter but it can be used to house the filtration systems including mechanical biological filtration media.

Thank you for this article if running a saltwater fish only tank and copper will be used most of the time in the sump would you still recommend choosing the ceramic noodles over the bio balls. The sealent will be toxic to the fish. Anything that can take in water will deteriorate over time. Many filter kits already include ceramic rings in the box.

Aqua one bionood ceramic noodles are a biological filter media for use in aquarium filtration systems. Bioballs are designed to be used in trickle filters. This tub comes with a pullstring bag to be used for keeping noodles together inside your filter. The coating that is applied has to be baked in order for it to be aquarium safe unless it is specially manufactured for tank use.

While some ceramic rings come with their own filter media bag others come loose. I still have some old fluval stuff from about twelve years ago that is still fine. The biggest issue here is the use of the biomedia. Simply add them to your aquarium filter.

Please let me know what you think. Ceramic noodles and other biomedia shouldn t break down.
