You’ll find it in every biOrb. It’s made by firing clay to 1500°C. It is incredibly porous and totally inert. Water circulation Its unique shape allows the water to circulate through and around it. Amazingly, the ceramic media provides a surface area the size of a football pitch for good bacteria to live on. This bacteria is too small to be seen with the naked eye and feeds on fish waste.

Review: Would recommend - Very good and comes with. Decent amount Review: Aquarium substrate suitable for any aquarium. - A substrate suitable for any aquarium, which looks good.

Error reported to desertcart and a 2nd pack sent f.o.c. next day, therefore cannot fault the service from desertcart, but item description needs to be updated. Advisable to rinse it before putting in aquarium. Useful hint - rinse it through in something like a colander. The few small fragments, less than 5mm which they recommend should be discarded and not put in the aquarium, will wash down to the bottom. ## Features - Powerful Biological Filtration Media: Specially designed ceramic media forms the backbone of your aquarium’s filtration system.

Decent amount ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aquarium substrate suitable for any aquarium. *by D***L on 7 June 2026* A substrate suitable for any aquarium, which looks good. Although described as 1kg, I only received a 450g pack. Error reported to Amazon and a 2nd pack sent f.o.c. next day, therefore cannot fault the service from Amazon, but item description needs to be updated. Advisable to rinse it before putting in aquarium. Useful hint - rinse it through in something like a colander. The few small fragments, less than 5mm which they recommend should be discarded and not put in the aquarium, will wash down to the bottom. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good grey/brown tank media. *by R***H on 23 May 2024* Got these brown/grey coloured ceramic media to add to a small tank & match with the present ones , especially around the live plants, looks more natural after cleaning. It was surprising how much the box contained and the size & quality was ok not all small and in good condition. Bit pricey but I suppose it’s a biOrb product. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/48397503-ceramic-filter-media-1kg-biological-filtration-substrate](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/48397503-ceramic-filter-media-1kg-biological-filtration-substrate) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
