Atlantic Bio-Rocks, 0.5 cu.ft. (MPN BB0500)

Expanded clay bio-rocks are a type of bio-media that offers numerous advantages compared to other commonly used materials. These bio-rocks are significantly lighter, weighing only 25% less than lava rock and half the weight of gravel. This makes them much easier to handle and maneuver. Despite their reduced weight, they provide the same surface area as lava rock, creating ample space for beneficial bacteria to thrive and for effective biological filtration to take place. One of the key benefits of expanded clay bio-rocks is their stability and low abrasiveness. Unlike heavy-weight bio-media, these bio-rocks are more stable and cause less wear and tear. This makes them an excellent choice for aquatic habitats that require a gentle and stable environment. They ensure the biological filtration processes can occur without causing harm or disturbance to the aquatic ecosystem. In conclusion, expanded clay bio-rocks offer an efficient and practical solution for a variety of applications. Their reduced weight, extensive surface area, stability, and abrasion resistance make them a convenient option for supporting biological filtration processes in aquatic ecosystems. They are particularly suitable in areas where lightweight materials are preferred, without compromising on performance or functionality.
