Shop the LiveAquaria® Aquarium Filter Media category to customize aquarium filtration to ensure high water quality and healthy aquarium inhabitants. Aquarium filter media can be categorized into three general groups including mechanical chemical, and biological filter media.
Employ mechanical filter media to help improve aquarium water clarity as mechanical filter media effectively trap and remove unsightly debris from the water column. Chemical filter media remove a wide variety of dissolved aquarium pollutants by binding these unwanted materials and trapping them within the media. Use chemical filter media to improve overall water quality, water clarity, or target specific aquarium pollutants. Biological Filter Media provide habitat for beneficial nitrifying bacteria that naturally break down toxic nitrogenous pollutants. The use of biological media is essential to establish and maintain efficient biological filtration (nitrogen cycle).
