Continue to Canada siteEstablish a healthy ecosystem for your fresh or saltwater aquarium with API Bio-Chem Stars Filtration Media for Biological Filter. This biological filter media, named for its unique star shape, provides a home for growing massive colonies of nitrifying bacteria that convert harmful ammonia into nitrate. This nitrogen cycle occurs naturally in all underwater environments. Formed under a patented production process, API Bio-Chem Stars Filtration Media for Biological Filter has a 50-70 micron internal pore network that provides four times more surface area for bacteria colonies than ceramic rings. Ideal for aquarium start-ups, it can also be used as part of your aquarium maintenance routine and will not break down or clog filters.

Remove Bio-Chem Stars from plastic bag and rinse thoroughly to remove any dust. Place Bio-Chem Stars in the last compartment of your filter. Bio-Chem Stars will become colonized by bacteria within several weeks.
Because Bio-Chem Stars do not break down or clog they may be used indefinitely. Continuous water flow is necessary to maintain living colonies of bacteria.
Each star is 1x1” in diameter. Use API BIO-CHEM STARS for fresh or saltwater aquariums.
A filter media bag is not included with API BIO-CHEM STARS.
