Mechanical filtration is the process of trapping and removing debris from the aquarium. Mechanical filter media comes in a variety of types including filter floss, filter foam and ceramic media.
Mechanical filtration should always be the first stage of the filtration process so that water coming back from the tank reaches this media first. Importantly, most mechanical filter media also promotes the colonisation of beneficial bacteria.
All of our mechanical filter media products are supplied by trusted brand Eheim and available at great value prices.
