NEO MEDIA PREMIUM SOFT XL is a 5-litre ceramic biological media set for aquarists who run high-flow canister filters or sumps and want stable, slightly softer water. It combines a large filtration surface with a gradual pH-lowering effect, which matters most in tanks with plants, shrimp or fish that prefer mildly acidic conditions.
Why it matters
- Its 3600 m²/l filtration surface gives a large area for biological colonisation within a compact volume.
- It lowers pH gradually and softens the water, without the sudden parameter swings that come from abrupt acidification.
- The supplier states it contains no heavy metals or artificial additives, which makes it suitable for aquatic organisms.
- Its varied pore structure is intended to support several bacterial strains at once. The product is tested by Quantachrome, according to the supplier.

What it works with
The XL size is designed for canister filters with strong flow and for sumps, so it fits larger systems rather than small internal filters. Because it includes nitrifying bacteria, it helps a new filter reach biological activity faster. Choose the PURE variant if you need media that is neutral for pH.
