Siporax larger than the classic use in Aquarius (2.5 x 2.5 cm in diameter).

ALSO ARE SUITABLE FOR USE IN AQUARIUS WITH SPECIAL BIG FILTERS .

WHAT IS IT?
A filter material, i.e. a substrate for bacteria (bacteria in the pond filter serve to break the fish excrement and to eliminate powerful poisons that are created during the decomposition of organic matter). When in a pool concentration of organic substances in decomposition very high relative to the amount of water is a clear need for a bacterial culture very consistent and very active. Since these bacteria related to a substrate substrate is obvious that this must be the largest as possible.
The efficacio of a filter in a pond is given only by the ability to offer the best conditions for the settlement of bacteria.

COMPARISON WITH TRADITIONAL MATERIALS FOR FILTERS
canutos shaped traditional but has a surface for settlement of bacteria much bigger.
34 liters of Sera Biopur (and this applies to all other similar products) to provide the same surface that offers siporax liter. In other words, each gram of siporax provides 1 square meter of surface area for the bacteria solution (with a surface area defined as the surface that allows the creation of bacteria).
A liter of siporax has a surface area of at least 270 square meters (bigger than a tennis court) and is therefore sufficient to filter up to 200 liters of water in the aquarium. As a result, within the pond biological filters can be constructed much smaller, favoring the space for fish.

REASON FOR SUPERIORITY
The traditional material is ceramic, so we speak of far superior materials, terracotta or similar.
The siporax is a high-tech product. The material is a special glass that is reduced to a fine powder in granumetria perfectly equal. The glass powder grains are joined together with a process known as sintering. The salt, which has a melting point much more "higher than the glass dissolves and rewashed.
FEATURES AND DIFFERENCES WITH OTHER ITEMS:
- It is chemically inert
- No yield no water (that is glass and the salt is completely removed)
- With open pores
- It has a huge area for the American cuisine of bacteria.
- Never consumed
- They are easy to clean
- After a few months of operation siporax is capable of removing nitrate in the inner wall of the bacteria.
