TetraTec EX700 Filter Components
1. Ceramic Filter Rings, Stage One in the filtration process. These rings act as a pre filter removing large particles and distributing the water flow evenly through the tetra filter.
2. Biological Filter Foam. The fine sponge provides a large surface area for de-nitrifying bacteria, these help break down toxic ammonia and nitrites biologicaly into non toxic nitrate.
3. Bio Balls provide more living space for benifical bacteria and help remove solid waste.
4. Activated Carbon Sponge chemically removes odors and harmful substances and should be replaced on a monthly basis. Carbon sponge should be removed from the filter during chemical treatment of diseases as it will remove the medicinal treatments.
5. Tetra Filter Floss Pad. This woolen mat traps fine particles not trapped by the other filter media and polishes the water before it passes back into your aquarium. It should be replaced on a monthly basis.
