Life Bio Media is a ceramic biological filter medium for freshwater aquariums, pre-colonized with a selected bacterial strain. It is aimed at keepers who are setting up a new tank and want nitrification to start early, or who want to improve the biological capacity of an established filter.
Why it matters
- Pre-seeded with bacteria: the medium carries specially selected bacterial strains, so the nitrification process begins almost immediately after the medium is placed in the filter.
- Faster tank maturation: the bacteria start and support nitrification, which shortens the period before the aquarium's biological filtration is stable.
- Simple dosing: the entire 250 ml pack goes into the filter basket, covering up to 100 l of water.
- Defined replacement cycle: the instructions call for replacing half of the insert every six months, which keeps part of the bacterial colony in the filter during each change.

What it works with
The medium is designed for freshwater aquariums and belongs to the freshwater filtration media category, so it fits any freshwater tank whose filter has a basket or compartment for media. Dose it by volume: 250 ml is the amount for 100 l of water. Keep the media wet during filter maintenance, and rinse it only in aquarium water taken outside the main tank, never under running tap water or in warm water.

Frequently asked questions
The product is designed for freshwater aquariums. Its use in saltwater tanks is not described in the product data.
250 ml covers about 100 litres of water. Place the entire contents in the filter basket.
It can be used in newly set up aquariums to speed up maturation, and also in established tanks to increase filtration efficiency. It supports nitrification, the bacterial process that breaks down ammonia and nitrite.
Do not let it dry out, and do not rinse it under running water or in warm water. Rinse it in aquarium water outside the main tank.
Replace it every six months, changing half of the insert each time.
