By combining three media types in a single stack, it promotes robust biological filtration, helps reduce ammonia and nitrite levels, and aims to provide clearer water for both fish and plant life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eDesigned for efficient biological filtration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe BioMax media uses a ceramic ring structure with a complex pore network that fosters beneficial bacteria. This multi-layer arrangement increases the surface area available for microbial colonies, contributing to a more stable biological filtration in larger or more populated aquariums. Fluval notes that this system, when paired with the AquaClear 70, can improve filtration efficiency by as much as 30 percent, while preserving water characteristics essential for a healthy environment. The design supports up to six times more media volume and the longest water-to-media contact time in the industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn practice, the AquaClear 70 is built to deliver a versatile filtration experience. Its design allows for a higher media volume and longer water-to-media contact time, which helps the filtration process continue to work as water flows through at varying rates. The patented re-filtration system lets you manage flow without sacrificing filtration efficiency; at lower flows, a portion of the water passes through media multiple times for extended contact. This can be especially helpful when you’re adjusting to new stock or adding new plant life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat makes up the BioMax media stack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAquaClear Foam Insert\u003c\/strong\u003e: debris removal and even water distribution help downstream media perform at full efficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAquaClear Activated Carbon Insert\u003c\/strong\u003e: premium carbon provides adsorption sites to reduce impurities and promote clearer water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAquaClear BioMax Insert\u003c\/strong\u003e: ceramic rings offer a porous surface area ideal for stable bacterial colonies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eMaintenance and replacement schedule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFoam Insert: replace every two months.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eActivated Carbon Insert: replace every month.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBioMax Insert: replace every three months.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eRegular upkeep is recommended to keep the filter performing as intended. Always unplug the unit before handling media, rinse components in tank water, and return them to their original arrangement.
