Plastic Igel Ball

Plastic Igel ball

Plastic Igel ball is a normal biological filter, its excellent performance and long-term improvement. Our igel ball is made of plastic, so it have light weight and can float on the water, the shape is ball. Its characterized by small water resistance, good ventilation, most of igel ball have diversion design, such as deflector, diversion channel, the water can be evenly distributed meanwhile increased water flow.
It’s better to gas exchange, can increase dissolved oxygen content and remove H2S and CO2.
It is be used in pond and aquarium.

Features of Plastic Igel ball

Adopting environmental plastic material with many specifications. All bio balls have wide surfaces for nitrifying bacteria to grow. It can help to establish the most complete and balanced system for biological filtration and can be used in both fresh and marine water tanks filtering biologically in both sea water tanks and fresh water tanks.
