Highly Buoyant
Bio Media
Features:
HydroBeads™ highly buoyant polypropylene beads provide high surface area for bio reaction down to 5 microns and superior water polishing down to 100 microns for clean and healthy water. 2 cubic feet per box.
Easy to clean, buoyant, non-clogging bead media that creates a fluidized media bed. This high surface area bio media backwashes with low pressure water – so no air blower is required.
High Surface Area Bio Media
HydroBeads™ are made from food-grade virgin polypropylen hollow and semi-hollow beads. The polypropylene beads are more buoyant than beads found in other beads filters. Being so lighter than water, they actually float “on top” of the water creating a fluidized media bed.
The extreme buoyancy of HydroBeads™ means that they are easily backwashed with low pressure water. Backwashing with low pressure water is better for the beneficial bacteria living on the bio media. This eliminates the need for two-speed pumps and air blowers for backwashing.
