Gel Filter Cartridge Inoculant 118ml

This gel biostarter is for aquarium keepers who are setting up a new filter or want to speed up biological activity in an existing one. Conventional bacterial preparations often lose most of their microorganisms in the water flow before they settle where they are needed. This product is applied directly to filter media, so the bacteria start in the place where the biofilter works.

Why it matters

• Targeted application: drops of gel go straight onto the filter material, on the corners and in the centre of larger cartridges, so the culture is placed where the filter needs it.
• Biopolymer adhesion: the biopolymers in the gel help microorganisms attach to the surface and stay there for longer.
• Faster biological start: according to the manufacturer, bacterial activity begins up to 80% sooner than with standard biostarters.
• Filter and water support: the product supports the denitrification performance of filters, which helps lower nitrate levels, and speeds up the breakdown of harmful organic substances.

What it works with

The gel is intended for aquarium filtration, specifically for filter cartridges and filter media that can be treated before installation. Put the cartridge into the filter filled with water, then wait 1–2 hours before starting the filter so the bacteria can settle. The product belongs to the freshwater water chemistry and treatment category.
