K1 Media Moving Bed Process
K1 media is engineered in a wheel shape and is slightly positively bouyant. This near neutral
buoyancy allows the media to circulate throughout the vessel with only a minimal water flow.
This flow is created with your air pump and air stones or diffuser etc.
Maturing the K1 media is important because a delicate eco-system is naturally developing for the
bacteria involved in the nitrification process. K1 media provides the maximum active surface area
for the bacteria to colonise, more than other types of static media. It is this process which removes
harmful ammonia and nitrite from the water.
