Filter Media Selection Guide for Qanvee Bio Sponge Filters

The Qanvee Bio Sponge Filter is compatible with a wide variety of filter media types, enabling you to customize the filtration based on your aquarium’s needs. Below is a breakdown of different filter media options and their functions:

---

🔄 Mechanical Filtration (Traps Debris)

These media physically capture particles such as uneaten food, plant matter, and fish waste.

• Filter Sponge (pre-installed)
  • Fine or coarse sponge layers that catch debris.
  • Also provides surface area for beneficial bacteria.
• Filter Floss or Poly Pads
  • Optional addition to catch finer particles.
  • Replace frequently to maintain efficiency.

---

♻️ Biological Filtration (Breaks Down Waste)

These media support colonization of beneficial nitrifying bacteria that convert toxic ammonia and nitrites into less harmful nitrates.

• Ceramic Rings
  • High surface area; excellent for bacterial growth.
  • Place loosely in the media chamber.
• Bio Balls
  • Lightweight plastic structures designed for biological filtration.
  • Best for high-oxygen environments.
• Lava Rock (small pieces)
  • Natural, porous rock; supports bacteria colonization.
• Sintered Glass Media (e.g., Pumice)
  • Very high surface area per volume.
  • Suitable for tanks with high bioloads.

---

⚖️ Chemical Filtration (Removes Impurities)

Used to remove specific substances like odors, toxins, or discoloration.

• Activated Carbon
  • Removes tannins, medications, and odors.
  • Replace every 2-4 weeks.
• Zeolite
  • Absorbs ammonia; ideal for new tanks or emergencies.
  • Use with caution in established tanks to avoid ammonia spikes.
• Phosphate Removers (e.g., GFH)
  • Controls algae by removing phosphate.
  • Ideal for planted or marine tanks.
• Organic Waste Absorbers (e.g., ORGAN-EX)
  • Removes tannins and other dissolved organics.
  • Regenerable and long-lasting.

🌍 Recommended Media Combinations

For Shrimp or Nano Tanks (<50L):

• QS100A
  • Sponge + Ceramic Rings or Lava Rock
  • Optional: Zeolite (if new setup)

For Heavily Stocked Community Tanks (50-100L):

• QS200A
  • Sponge + Bio Balls
  • Optional: Activated Carbon or Phosphate Remover

For Planted Tanks:

• Sponge + Ceramic Rings
  • Optional: Phosphate Remover
  • Avoid Activated Carbon if using liquid fertilizers

For Breeding or Fry Tanks:

• Sponge only or Sponge + Fine Floss
  • No chemical media recommended

⚡ Tips for Best Performance

• Rinse all new media in dechlorinated water before use.
• Do not overfill the media chamber; allow water flow.
• Replace or rinse sponge regularly (every 2–4 weeks).
• Alternate cleaning media to preserve bacterial colonies.
