Bakki Rods Spiral Single Unit (Bacteria House Bio Rods)

Bakki Rods Spiral Bacteria House - Single Full Version

Not all "Bakki Rods" are the same. We retail the full Bakki version not the Bakki Lite version.

The primary purpose is for filtration and surface area as major important key factors. The Bakki Rod on the left hand side is the full Bakki version with the smaller hole thus giving massively more surface area for better filtration and is the one that we provide and has been tested over time for long jeopardy.

Each Rod is 170mm x 40mm round spiral.

BENEFITS:

Designed for Bio-Filtration

Houses beneficial bacteria

Massive Surface Area

Bakki Rods

The Bacteria house is made of ceramic that has been heat treated at 1300°c for 60hrs. This tremendous amount of heat causes the ceramic to break its internal bonds thereby creating an extremely porous structure that has a much greater surface to allow very large bacteria populations to colonise.

Due to the large quantities of tiny holes, mechanical filtration is also achieved. Large organic solids and decaying matter are degraded at a far greater speed than conventional media, and maintain the optimum ecological balance of aquarium.

Bacteria house is not made of calcium and as such will not erode and thus does not need maintaining, the bacteria house contains minerals and trace elements which is beneficial to aquarium life.
