How to Use

With the massive surface area, you can say goodbye to huge and chunky biomats, bioballs, etc. Treating 3 tons of freshwater with 1 kg of BIOHOME, all you need is a very small compartment for biological filtration! (1 kg = 1.25 L)

If you are going to have a high stock loading (a lot of fish in a small area) you should allow approximately 1 cubic centimetre of BIOHOME to 8 cubic centimetres of fish by volume. ‘BIOHOME PLUS‘ is another similar product which has carefully chosen trace elements added to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria. BIOHOME® ULTRA, ULTRA PLUS, and ULTIMATE are made with higher porosity (10% more) to support more oxygen exchange within the pellet, supporting better biological functions. These are generally larger pellets than BIOHOME® Standard & Plus.

In our experience we have found the best flow rate to be;

Marine : 10 mm / sec
Fresh : 5 mm / sec

This rate can be increased, however it doesn’t necessarily increase the efficiency of the unit. Optimum efficiency will be attained in zero light levels. However BIOHOME does operate in shaded environment.
