{"product_id":"blue-thumb-bacti-twist-biological-media","title":"Blue Thumb Bacti-Twist Biological Media","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlue Thumb Bacti-Twist is a black, spiral-shaped plastic bio-ribbon filter media that handles both biological AND mechanical filtration in a single media bag. The high surface-area-to-volume ratio of the bio-ribbon shape gives nitrifying bacteria (Nitrosomonas + Nitrobacter colonies) maximum living space to break down ammonia and nitrite from fish waste, while the spiral channels mechanically trap suspended debris that flows through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe media drops into any pressurized pond filter, gravity bio-falls box, bakki shower, or upflow biological filter chamber. Available in four bag sizes — 1\/2 cu ft, 1 cu ft, 2 cu ft, and 5 cu ft — so you can size the media exactly to your filter chamber's volume. Easy to rinse-clean each season; lasts for years between replacements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombined biological AND mechanical filtration in one media — bacteria colonize the spiral surfaces while the channels trap fine debris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh surface area for maximum nitrifying bacteria capacity per cubic foot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack UV-stable plastic — won't degrade in direct sunlight or under filter lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdaptable — drops into pressurized filters, bio-falls boxes, bakki showers, upflow chambers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-maintenance — rinse seasonally, replace every several years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 sizes (1\/2 \/ 1 \/ 2 \/ 5 cu ft) for any pond filter chamber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto;
