Maxspect Nano Tech Bio-Spheres

Maxspect’s Nano-Tech BioSpheres are a durable dense arrangement of smaller spheres creating an ultra-high surface area media which reduces the volume of bio media actually required for efficient nutrient cycling in both fresh and saltwater aquariums and ponds. This unique ceramic media has a unique cross-cutting surface area that creates an ideal surface for a dense population of beneficial bacteria that removes ammonia and nitrites from your aquariums water. Some systems may also notice a decrease in nitrates. Suitable for sumps, reactors trickle filters, wet/dry filters, hang on the back filters or directly in the tank.

The Maxspect Nano-Tech Bio-Media is developed using established technology borrowed from the sewage treatment industry with a proven record of nutrient removal of waste water. Instead of using mounds of costly live rock within the aquarium for biological surface we now have the option to regain more space and less weight in our aquariums and sumps.

Ultra-high surface cross-cutting ratio and filtration area.

Nano-Tech Bio-Media is made of ceramic beads and is completely inert.

Adopted from the sewage treatment industry, the Nano-Tech Bio-Media uses a proprietary technology to form the inert ceramic beads into a manageable shape (spheres, blocks, plugs) for household aquariums.

With an ultra-high surface cross-cutting ratio and filtration area, each Bio-Sphere has up to 54m² surface area (580ft²) and each Bio-Block has up to 1,080m² surface area (11,635ft²) for the establishment of bacterial colonies, which allows it to effectively control the quality and stability of the water column.

With the use of stabilised microbial sewage treatment technology (W-BAF), the Bio-Media have a unique advantage in the treatment of water column with high Ammonia-Nitrogen (NH4-N) and high Nitrate-Nitrogen (NO3-N).

The Bio-Spheres/Bio-Blocks excel at establishing bacterial colonies in forms of Bio-Nano Composite Films, it allows different species of bacteria and fungi to grow on its large surface area, such as nitrifying bacteria (including species of the genera Nitrosomonas, Nitrosococcus, Nitrobacter and Nitrococcus), yeast, phototrophic prokaryotes, etc.

The Bio-Spheres/Bio-Blocks are carefully manufactured to ensure its quality, the well-designed porous structure of the Bio-Spheres/Bio-Blocks create the ideal living conditions and environment for bacterial colonies, but will not be decomposed by the bacterial colonies that grows within it.

Only 10 pieces Nano-Tech Bio-Sphere can replace up to 20lbs (10kgs) live rocks.

For Bio-Blocks,simply place them directly in your sump or area with high water flow.

Putting all Nano-Tech Bio-Sphere in mesh bag make it easy to maintenance and save huge place for other equipments. It can be used in both fresh water and seawater environment.
