Alfagrog is a porous foamed ceramic material, which is lightweight, strong and inert. Its high surface area makes it the natural choice for colonisation by micro organisms in biological filtration systems resulting in cleaner water. The manufacturing process ensures that no substances are present to adversely affect the health of fish or plants. The material is pH neutral and can be used in both freshwater and marine applications. The key to effective biological filtration is choosing media with the highest surface area possible to allow beneficial bacteria to colonise and remove waste from the water. Alfagrog has an extremely high surface area by volume compared with other types of filter media on the market.
