I still have some old fluval stuff from about twelve years ago that is still fine.
Ceramic noodles aquarium.

You can use more than one type of media in your filter.
Aquarium ceramic decor handmade aquarium decoration ceramic fish house candle lantern house mushroom garden furniture decor dollhouse narinehandmade.
These noodles provide a housing material for bacteria which form the major part of the biological filtration in your fish tank.
Ceramic noodles are lots better i suggests bio balls on the first tray and noodles in the rest.
You see beneficial bacteria need a surface to cling to.
This tub comes with a pullstring bag to be used for keeping noodles together inside your filter.
Ceramic noodles can carry both nitrifying bacteria on the surface and denitrifying bacteria inside.
The ceramics will be fine only if it is glazed inside and out and if there are no cracks in the glazing.
Favorite add to cave for spawning fish.
Ceramic rings offer the perfect home for the beneficial bacteria in your aquarium.
Now you may be thinking.
Bioballs are designed to be used in trickle filters aka wet dry.
Be very carfull when adding stuff that is not made spacifically for tanks.
The biggest issue here is the use of the biomedia.
The more surface that is available the more bacteria that your filter media can hold.
Ceramics are just baked mud exposure to water over time makes ceramic break down and all those chemicals will leach into your water.
Hi all i have been keeping tropical fish for only 6 months currently i only have a small tank 2ft but tomorrow i am about to pick up a 4ft tank.

Ceramic rings increase their surface area through tiny little pores.
