These filter media replenishment kits are designed to fit the All Pond Solutions range of external aquarium filters.
However, these will quite easily fit other brands of external filters or even aquarium tray filtration systems.

Included with all packs are as follows;
Bio Balls (40 approx per pack)
Bio balls provide a large surface for nitro-bacteria development and will help produce and maintain a high water-oxygen level. They will also keep the PH balance at neutral for a long time and can absorb and dissolve poisonous ions. A very efficient way of improving water quality.

Activated Carbon (400-500g per pack)

Activated carbon helps to eliminate unwanted organic and synthetic substances from your aquarium water. Removes chlorine to soften and improve water quality and helps cultivate healthy bacteria in your aquarium.
Please be aware that activated carbon may also absorb liquid medical treatments used to treat sick fish, so we recommend removing this from your filtration system prior to treatment.
Please note; Activated carbon will need changing every two - three months as at this point it will begin to release the potentially harmful chemicals that it originally absorbed back into your fish tank.
Ceramic Rings (400g per pack)
These porous ceramic biological rings provide a greater air surface for bacterial development and help decompose ammonia and nitrate efficiently. The ceramic material will withstand any chemical reaction and is suitable for both fresh and salt-water fish tanks.
Blue Coarse or White Floss Filter foams

Effectively traps and retains solid waste and particulates, allow biological and chemical media to function better.

9w UV bulb

Adds additional UV sterilisation / clarification to your aquarium - can only be used with PLUS model All Pond Solutions filters.

Which filters do these media kits fit?

They are designed to fit the AllPondSolutions 1400EF and EF2 external aquarium filters, and will also fit many other brands of external or tray filters.

What is included in the kit?

Depending on the option chosen, kits include bio balls, activated carbon, ceramic rings and white and/or blue floss foams, with an optional 9w UV bulb.

What are the kit options?

You can choose WHITE (white floss foams), BLUE (blue floss foams) or BOTH (both white and blue floss foams) from the dropdown, plus an optional PLUS UV bulb.

How often should the activated carbon be changed?

The activated carbon should be changed every two to three months, after which it can begin to release absorbed chemicals back into the tank.

What does the 9w UV bulb do?

It adds additional UV sterilisation and clarification, but can only be used with PLUS model AllPondSolutions filters.

Should I remove carbon during treatment?

Yes, as activated carbon can absorb liquid medical treatments, it is recommended to remove it before treating sick fish.
