Aqua One Ceramic Substrate 375gm
Aqua One Ceramisub – Ceramic Substrate 375G
Ceramic substrate is highly porous and provides the ideal environment for beneficial bacteria to grow on. Bacteria are necessary in the filtration process and the ceramic substrate acts as a mechanical/biological filter. Large waste particles naturally created by excess food and faecal matter in your aquarium are caught and ingested by the bacteria, therefore removing and reducing the potential toxicity of the waste.
Key benefits:
Creates biological stability in your aquarium by providing the ideal environment for beneficial bacteria
Biological, mechanical filtration attacks the waste produced in your aquarium
Suitable for cannister, internal and wet/dry filters
Comes with a FREE netting bag

Caroline Watson –
I’ve used this substrate in my 50-liter freshwater tank for three months. The water clarity has improved significantly. The bacteria colonization is visible after a week. It fits well in my internal filter and is easy to handle.
Alexander Wallace –
The netting bag is very helpful for storage and transport. I noticed better water stability after adding it to my filter. It’s a bit heavy, but worth the weight for the filtration performance.
Joshua Chapman –
Great product for beginners. The instructions were clear and the substrate worked immediately. My fish seem more active and the water parameters have stabilized over time.

Used in a wet/dry filter setup. It holds up well and doesn’t break easily. The porous structure helps trap waste effectively. I haven’t had to clean it much, which is a plus.
