Lotus Root Nitro Ring II Freshwater 1kg Box

Lotus Root Nitro Ring II Freshwater 1kg Box

The Lotus Root Nitro Ring II Freshwater 1kg Box is premium biological filter media designed to maximise the efficiency of your aquarium’s filtration system. Manufactured using an advanced ceramic formula, each ring features a specialised lotus root-inspired structure with both open and closed pores, creating an enormous surface area for beneficial bacteria to establish and thrive.  

As water flows through the media, colonies of nitrifying bacteria develop throughout the porous ceramic. These beneficial bacteria naturally convert toxic ammonia into nitrite before breaking it down into the far less harmful nitrate, helping maintain excellent water quality and creating a healthier environment for freshwater fish, shrimp and aquatic plants.  

Unlike standard ceramic rings, the oblique-cut design of the Lotus Root Nitro Ring II encourages improved water circulation and oxygen distribution throughout the filter media. This allows beneficial bacteria to colonise more effectively while supporting both aerobic and anaerobic biological filtration, resulting in greater long-term filter performance.  

Whether you’re setting up a new aquarium or upgrading an established filter, the Lotus Root Nitro Ring II Freshwater 1kg Box is suitable for canister filters, sump systems, trickle filters and many internal or external filtration systems. It is an excellent choice for tropical community aquariums, planted aquariums, shrimp tanks, cichlid aquariums and larger freshwater systems where maintaining stable water parameters is essential.

Directions for Use

Rinse the media thoroughly with aquarium or dechlorinated water before use to remove any dust from shipping.

For best results, avoid washing the media with tap water during maintenance to preserve beneficial bacteria colonies. Replace only a portion of the media at a time when required to maintain biological stability.
