IceCap 4-Inch Bio-Plate Biological Filter Media – Compact Ceramic Brick
IceCap 4-Inch Bio-Plate Biological Filter Media
Packed with ultra-dense ceramic beads, this compact 4×4×¾-inch brick delivers exceptional biological filtration—enough to power systems up to 375 gallons. Perfect for sumps, wet/dry setups, canisters, or even directly in the display. 🪸🔬✨
Why It’s Effective
- 🌊 Ultra-high surface area promotes bacterial colonization for efficient nutrient cycling
- 🧱 Dense ceramic structure ensures lasting performance and stability
- ⚖ Neutral pH (7.0–7.5) — safe for reef, freshwater, and pond use
- 🚀 Designed to support up to 375 gallons, yet compact enough to fit nearly any filter chamber
How to Use
- Rinse gently with tank or RO water to remove dust
- Seed overnight with a bacterial blend (e.g., Fauna Marin Bacto Blend) for faster activation
- Place media in sump, reactor, canister, or directly in the aquarium
Maintenance Tips
- Rinse with tank water and lightly brush off debris every 12 months
- Replace every 5 years or when surface area degrades
- Never replace all media at once—stagger replacements to preserve your biological colony
