Pisces Live Filter Media – Ceramic Rings
Aqua Natural’s Live Filter Media are designed to jumpstart the nitrogen cycle in both new and established aquariums. Each media type is pre-colonized with live nitrifying bacteria and packaged in water to preserve bacterial health—so you can establish your biofiltration system safely and effectively from day one.
Unlike transferring rocks or filter media from older tanks—which can carry pests, algae, or disease—this is a clean, controlled solution that accelerates the cycling process without the risk.
Suitable for all freshwater and saltwater systems and compatible with any filter brand or style.

I used this media when setting up my new saltwater tank. The water clarity improved quickly, and I didn’t have to wait weeks for the cycle to establish. The ceramic rings fit well in my filter and the bacteria seemed active right away.

Great product for beginners. It saved me from having to wait months for the nitrogen cycle to form. The instructions were clear and the media worked smoothly with my hang-on-back filter.
