K+Media is designed and manufactured in the UK by Evolution Aqua. This advanced media, with its innovative design, and class leading surface area provides enhanced biological and mechanical filtration.

Plastic media, for use in biological Pond filters - specifically in moving bed bio reactors, was pioneered by Evolution Aqua, some 20 years ago. In recent years, other plastic media have come onto the market, usually with the aim of trying to get more and more surface area. However, one drawback to using plastic media has always been the time it takes to establish a stable biofilm – essential for good filtration.
After many years of research, Evolution Aqua have now developed a new media that not only gives class leading surface area, but also overcomes the problem of long maturation times.

As Evolution Aqua extrude the K+Media, Minerals and Enzymes are added to the raw material. The result of this process, unique to Evolution Aqua, is a filtration media that not only outperforms most of its competitors due to its large protected surface area, but also answers the problem of how to speed up the time taken to mature your filter.

• Class leading total surface area 1,350m2 per m3
• Vast protected surface area 1,025m2 per m3
• Filters mature faster with K+Media
• Minerals, magnesium, calcium, salt and enzymes incorporated into the K+Media during the extrusion process
• Design and structure of K+Media allows a stable bio-film to form
• Microscopic organisms such as Rotifers and Vorticella thrive in “quiet zones”
• Exceptional solids removal thanks to efficient, proven design
• Reduced energy consumption, less back pressure on pumps
• Used in Nexus+ filters for improved biological filtration in moving bed
• Available as floating or sinking versions in 25 litre or 50 litre bags
