Aqua One Filter Wool Coarse

Aqua One Filter Wool (Bag) - Coarse

Provide robust mechanical and effective biological filtration for your aquarium with Aqua One Coarse Filter Wool. This high-quality, versatile filter media is designed to efficiently remove waste and particulates from your aquarium water, promoting a cleaner, healthier environment for your fish.

How it Works:

The coarse nature of this filter wool makes it excellent for capturing larger debris, uneaten food, and fish waste, preventing these particles from breaking down and impacting water quality. At the same time, the intricate fibrous structure provides an extensive surface area, creating an ideal habitat for beneficial nitrifying bacteria to colonize. These bacteria are vital for breaking down harmful ammonia and nitrite, contributing to a stable and balanced nitrogen cycle in your tank.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Effective Mechanical Filtration: Traps larger waste particles and suspended debris for clearer water.
• Promotes Biological Filtration: Offers an excellent surface for beneficial bacteria to grow, aiding in the breakdown of toxins.
• Removes Waste and Particulates: Helps keep your aquarium water clean and free of impurities.
• Cut-to-Size Media: Supplied in a generous bag, allowing you to easily cut and shape the wool to fit any filter compartment in your aquarium or pond.

(Please check specific product packaging for exact dimensions.)

Usage & Maintenance:

• Rinse Before Use: Always rinse the filter wool thoroughly in aquarium water (never tap water, as chlorine can harm beneficial bacteria) before placing it into your filter.
• Placement: Generally used as an early stage of mechanical filtration, or before finer media, to capture larger particles and prevent clogging of subsequent filter stages.
• Regular Cleaning/Replacement: For optimum filtration, it's recommended to clean or replace coarse filter wool regularly, typically every 2-4 weeks, or as needed if flow reduces or the wool appears heavily soiled. This prevents trapped debris from decomposing and releasing toxins back into the water. While it can be rinsed and reused, regular replacement ensures the most effective filtration.
