Sera siporax Professional for use in both freshwater and marine aquariums as well as in ponds. It maximizes the surface required for biological purification and provides the optimal substrate for the settling of necessary filter bacteria. Filter and breakdown processes in the bottom ground of natural waters are very important. Organic waste are processed by micro-organisms and are thus available for the natural cycle as a nutrient for aquatic plants – pollutants such as ammonium, nitrite and nitrate are removed. Since little waste per water amount is formed in nature, the present bottom surface is sufficient for housing a sufficient number of micro-organisms. However, an aquarium accommodates a small biotope in little space. Sera perfectly put this into practice with the unique high performance filter medium Sera siporax. Sera siporax consists of sintered glass with a special three-dimensional pore structure for maximum surface increase. At the same time, the fine pores provide ideal settling conditions for bacteria that break down pollutants.

Good product

Got it for less than half the price on Amazon warehouse! That was a steal. Looks like a good quality product, rinsed it off and dropped the media into the filter along with the nylon mesh bag it came in. Not much debris. I have this media along with seachem matrix in my canister filter and nitrate levels are near zero, water crystal clear. Fish all look happy. Highly recommend.

The single best bio media on the market.

The open cell structure gives much higher surface area than competing ceramic rings. Similar design to BioHome ultimate in that it's open cell, sintered glass. But this one won't drop your filter output to near zero, as it lets water flow easily. This is the only bio media you'll ever need.

I've always used it. SO WHAT?

Came without the so-called bacterial booster. I don't think they claimed it is included, in this case. It came without one single ring crushed! Does it work? I've used this product for years and if sintered glass really is that efficient, then this is the best product. It doesn't seem to shed particles and deteriorate. I'm not convinced that this is better than 30 ppi foam or pot scrubbers, for that matter. Anything on the internet is hearsay, advertising and unscientific. In order to save space in your filter, you may stack the pieces rather than spreading randomly.

It works.

Excellent. I'm doing a fishless cycle with ammonia on a new tank. I wasted money on a couple of different brands of bacteria starter and none of them worked. I got the Siporax with the small bottle of starter included. I followed the instructions, adding the liquid directly to the Siporax media (it's pretty dusty from shipping, so I rinsed it first). The very next day I had nitrites on my test indicating the bacteria was starting to work. Now a week later, it looks like my cycle is almost finished! I don't know if the Siporax is really better than ceramic rings or whatever, but the Sera bio starter included definitely worked for me. I wish I could find it for sale separately.

Reduces my nitrate levels to Zero

Ok so I bought this a little over a year ago hoping to reduce nitrates in my tanks. I couldn't tell if it was working the first few months. I stopped testing and forgot about them after the 4th month. Now that it's been a year...this reduced my nitrate that comes out of the tap at over 10ppm to 0ppm in a day or two, depending on how large a water change I do. The bacteria needed for de-nitrification takes time so be patient and wait at least 6 months for it to establish.

Superb product

These are superb. I was having an ongoing problem with high nitrates and since I started using these (about 3 weeks now) I haven't had any problems. Highly recommend!

Hoping for the best; I am a new pond/fish keeper and learning ...

Arrived in a timely manner. My pond is 50 gallons so I am using 1 bag. I rinsed and put the mesh bag as instructed in a Tetra Pond Filtration Fountain Kit after I cleaned the filters and added the 5ml of sera bio nitrivec which was provided tonight 6/6/18. Hoping for the best; I am a new pond/fish keeper and learning as I go. This product was recommended so here I am. Thank you

Too expensive

Please don’t get me wrong. Very good product but only few hand full of it cost me $30 dollars.

Great media

This is a great media for aquariums, it's very porous and will hold a lot of beneficial bacteria I use this in marine so be aware the bottle of bacteria that comes in the box is for freshwater I would recommend this

Macht was es soll und Produkt wie beschrieben!

Ich nutze Siporax Professional 15mm in meinem Juwel Bioflow 3.0 M. Habe alte Ciraxkörbe genommen, geöffnet und dann Siporax in vier Körbe (drei im unteren Korb) eingefüllt. Vorher hatte ich dort zwei feine Filterschwämme und zu oberst im unteren Korb einen Ciraxkorb. Siporax wurde dann großzügig noch mit Filterstarterbakterien geimpft und dann konnte das Experiment losgehen. Bereits nach einer Woche war ein merklicher Unterschied in der Klarheit des Wassers zu sehen. Die Nitratwerte pegeln sich im Gesellschaftsbecken mit leichtem Überbesatz bei stabilen Werten um die 25mg/l ein. Ziel war für mich bei begrenztem Volumen eine größtmögliche Fläche zur Besiedlung von Bakterienkulturen zu generieren. Ich denke das mir dies gelungen ist. Wenn in einer Woche der Phoraxfilterkorb (ist mittlerweile entfernt) entfernt wird, wird anstelle seiner noch ein Siporaxkorb generiert und dieser auch noch eingepflegt (siehe oben). Dann hätte ich den gesamten Liter verwertet. Fazit: 1. klares Wasser 2. Abhandlung der gesamten Denitrifikation und Nitrifikation in einem Produkt bei größtmöglicher Oberfläche 3. Beste Besiedlungsmöglichkeiten von Aerobiern und Anaerobiern 4. Einsatzmöglichkeit in jedem Filtersystem (und dies egal ob ein hoher Durchfluss, oder niedriger Durchfluss herrscht) 5. hohe Standzeit (für mich der wichtigste Punkt, da ich so nur sehr wenig in den biologischen Kreislauf eingreife und nicht wie bei anderen Produkten das Biotop störe) Für all jene die auch ein Juwelaquarium mit Bioflow damit betreiben wollen. Ich fragte bei Juwel nach ob es ein Problem darstellen würde wenn ich im unteren Filterfach drei Körbe betreiben würde. Es wurde klar artikuliert das dies KEIN PROBLEM darstellt. Als Vorfilter nutze BioPlus Coarse und darunter BioPlus fine und zu oberst die Filterwatte. An Position drei des oberen Korbes betreibe ich einen Ciraxkorb (ohne Cirax) mit Sera Siporax Professional Bioactive und Algovec. Mit anderen Worten dient mir dieser zur chemisch/biologischen Wasseraufbereitung. Damit ist dann auch gewährleistet das Sipoarx nicht zugesetzt wird und das Wasser stets top Werte hat. Im oberen Korb können max. (Nach Juwel) bis zu vier Filtermedien zuzüglich der Biopadwatte verbaut werden (als Nachweis hänge ich die Mail an) .Somit denke ich darüber nach zu unterst noch einen Korb mit Siporax Professional 15mm einzupflegen. Siporax gehört für mich nun zum festen Bestandteil meines Filters. Super Produkt! P.S.: Kleines Update am Rande. Nachdem Siporax Professional nun vollständig eingefahren ist, liegt der Nitrat stabil bei ca. 10-14mg/l (nach 5 Wochen ohne Wasserwechsel!) Nitrit bei 0mg/l. Mich hat das Produkt voll und ganz überzeugt! Anhang Kommunikation mit Juwel: bitte setzen Sie im unteren Filterkorb nicht mehr als drei Medien und im oberen Korb nicht mehr als vier Medien Plus der Filterwatte. Wie Sie bereits erkannt haben, ist es wichtig für den Wasserstrom, dass die weitern Platze freibleiben.
