Evolution Aqua K1 Micro Media - 25 Litres

The amount needed depends on the size of your filter and the biological load of your aquarium or pond. For a 25-litre container, it can be sufficient for a moderately stocked aquarium or a small to medium pond filter.

K1 Micro is designed to be largely self-cleaning through its movement in the water. Manual cleaning is typically not required unless the entire filter system is being serviced.

K1 Micro is a smaller, wheel-shaped version of traditional K1 media, offering significantly more protected surface area for beneficial bacteria within the same volume.

While it can be used in a filter, K1 Micro is optimized for fluidized or moving bed applications where its self-cleaning and optimal surface exposure characteristics are best utilized.

K1 Micro media is a durable plastic and, with proper care, can last for many years. Its effectiveness is maintained as long as the beneficial bacteria colonies are established.

Yes, K1 Micro is effective for biological filtration in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums, as it supports the nitrifying bacteria necessary for waste breakdown.

Ensure adequate water flow is present to allow the K1 Micro to move freely and perform its self-cleaning action. Check for any blockages in the filter or pump.

Adjust the water flow rate or the media's placement within the filter chamber to encourage better agitation. Ensure the chamber is not overfilled.

While K1 Micro enhances biological filtration, other factors like mechanical filtration or overstocking could be at play. Ensure your mechanical filtration is adequate and water parameters are stable.
