Filter
The main task of biological filter media is to offer the best colonisation onditions for the bacteria cultures, so that after a short time a bacteria lawn develops. The bacteria feed on dirt particles of all kind and convert substances critical for the aquarium.
After the first cleaning process by the mechanical filter media (e.g. EHEIM MECH or MECHpro) the biological filtration is the most important. It provides for clear, healthy water and stabile water values. That’s why we have invested a lot of research work into the development of biological filter media.
Tip:Never clean or change all the filter media together in one operation (and never clean too rigorously). The bacteria cultures must not be completely destroyed, otherwise re-colonisation will be retarded. The filter baskets in the external filters and filter modules in the internal filters aquaball and biopower are ideal for partial cleaning.EHEIM LAVNatural volcanic rock for biological filtration
EHEIM LAV consists of volcanic rock and is a natural product. Its rough, highly porous surface structure provides the purification bacteria with very good colonisation conditions. Because it is a natural product the granulate and small pieces in the packs are of different sizes. EHEIM LAV can be washed and reused. It is suitable for fresh and marine water.

It is a highly porous filter material made from sintered glass. The surface structure offers the important purification bacteria excellent colonisation conditions. The colonisable area amounts to 450 m² per litre. EHEIM SUBSTRAT is washable and can be reused.

SUBSTRATpro consists of pearl-shaped sintered glass. The spherical shape gives a high bulk density. Thus the whole of the volume in the filter (filter baskets or modules) can be utilised. Also the optimum surface of the beads provides intensive colonisation of the important purification bacteria. Due to the high number of bacteria, peak nitrite loads are more easily reduced and the maintenance intervals of the filter material are longer.EHEIM SUBSTRATpro is suitable for fresh and marine water, is washable and can be reused.
