This flow is created with your air pump and\nair stones or diffuser etc. How it works?Maturing the K1 bio-media is\nimportant because a delicate Eco-system is naturally developing for the\nbacteria involved in the nitrification process. K1 Media provides the maximum\nactive surface area for the bacteria to colonise, more than other types of\nstatic media. It is this process which removes harmful ammonia and nitrite\nfrom the water. How it is different to other media?As the K1 Media moves\nwithin the filter, it causes the old dead bacteria on the outside to be\ndisplaced. This makes space for new younger heavier feeding bacteria to\nrapidly colonise. Within the wheel is a protected surface which enables\ncolonies of bacteria to naturally follow their life cycle, of maturing, dying\nand then fuelling the latter stages of the nitrification cycle. K1 Media has\nbeen designed to provide the best possible habitat for both young and mature\nbeneficial bacterial colonies. What is meant by 'self cleaning'?Unlike foam,\nmatting, or other forms of static filtration media, K1 media is designed to\nmove freely within your filter. The constant chaotic movement of the air from\nyour pump, causes the media to self clean and thus requires no maintenance.\nThis allows the filter to reach optimum effectiveness without the disturbance\nof periodic cleaning, avoiding unnecessary loss of bacteria within the filter.\n50 Litres of K1 Media will handle up to 250 grammes of food per day.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eLarge Protected Surface Area\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eUsed with Nexus and Eazy Pod filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIdeal for use in moving bed filter systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCan also be used in box, pressure and multi-bay filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIncreases the efficiency of a filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","published_at":"2022-09-05T23:01:13+10:00","created_at":"2022-09-05T23:01:15+10:00","vendor":"Evolution Aqua","type":"Pumps","tags":["petsUK"],"price":34000,"price_min":34000,"price_max":34000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42282911563976,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"uk-B00AHA4ZYK","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Evolution Aqua K1 Media 50 Litre Bag 50L","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":34000,"weight":700,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":null,"barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/uk-B00AHA4ZYK.jpg?v=1662439665","\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41vvqSszgKL.jpg?v=1662382875"],"featured_image":"\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/uk-B00AHA4ZYK.jpg?v=1662439665","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Evolution Aqua K1 Media 50 Litre Bag 50L - PawsPlanet Australia","id":25732878467272,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1000,"width":1000,"src":"\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/uk-B00AHA4ZYK.jpg?v=1662439665"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/uk-B00AHA4ZYK.jpg?v=1662439665","width":1000},{"alt":"Evolution Aqua K1 Media 50 Litre Bag 50L - PawsPlanet Australia","id":25729337491656,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"width":500,"src":"\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41vvqSszgKL.jpg?v=1662382875"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":500,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/pawsplanetshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/41vvqSszgKL.jpg?v=1662382875","width":500}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch3\u003eEvolution Aqua K1 Media 50 Litre Bag\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"b\"\u003eK1 media is engineered in a wheel shape and is slightly positively buoyant.\nThis near neutral buoyancy allows the media to circulate throughout the vessel\nwith only a minimal water flow.
