Well done video Matthew regarding ceramic media and the importance of it

RogueAquariums

I use these in quarantine tanks. Make sure you have good flow to utilize the surface area

Quick question on this media, Ive heard it can leach aluminium, have you ever had issues?

Won’t rinsing in RODI water hurt the bacteria?

DKen

Great video covering ceramic media. One thing in question, you mentioned placing the Marine pure spheres in a bag so when you need to rinse it, it's much easier. You said in RODI water. Wouldn't that kill most of the beneficial bacteria? I've always rinsed mine in saltwater. Happy Reefing!

Matthew do we need to clean the ceramic bio media with toothbrush to remove detritus after one year or earlier when we are cleaning sump?

Can one use the ceramic balls or shapes in their display tanks?

Some Ceramic media will and does reduce nitrates, put them in a very low flow area with less oxygen to reach the centre of the media they work exactly the same as deep inside live rock does, they reduce nitrates very well pick a very high flow area they convert ammonia and nitrite into nitrates. Also some manufacturers such as maxspect are selling specifc nitrate reducing ceramic media.

Since you're covering these, maybe give us a little video, talking if these will leech aluminum to the tank? Everytime I think about switching to these, I always see people complaining they leech aluminum and what not.

My tank is loaded with ceramic marine gems and I still had a super rough ugly phase despite leaving the lights off for the first few months, adding bottled bacteria and taking it slow turning on the lights

Any aluminum laches in marine pure block?

Didn’t these crumble after X amount of time? Or was that fixed in these new batches

Seachem Matrix recommends a VERY low flow rate to get the nitrate reduction benefit. Perhaps you guys had too much flow going through the test sumps?

lisathewhitewolf

When would u add these?? During the cycle stage or afterwards??

I’ve always wondered if pumice stone would be a viable and more affordable option.

If you look at its surface and watch how it reacts to water it’s very similar to the ceramic media.
