Cleaning changing filter media

[Teleos]

I think people like spending money and people like earning money so despite options that work… these products will stay popular.

People believe in all sorts of esoteric nonsense these days. Sales must be right. Nothing Else Matters. (Caution. Video inside).

They are baked together from the cheapest materials. If you like that, then buy them. They don't have any special features. There is no proof of the advertising promises that are made.

Its not about what I like or not, I am doing my research and exploring the combination of mechanical, biological and chemical filter media without affecting the flow rate

... combination of mechanical, biological and chemical filter media without affecting the flow rate

In reality, it is not possible without influencing the flow rate. You have to find the best personal compromise. And the best compromise for me is definitely not to use any ‘biomedia’. But media that are guaranteed to work. As efficiently as possible. No matter how cheap they are.

Biohome is just sintered glass from a company called Aqua-Bio UK. My understanding is a well known YouTuber had a financial interest in the product and started pushing it hard on his channel (without declaring the financial interest).

Hw did you find that out?

Years back I was looking into it for my ponds and came across his real name as the seller. A bit of googling confirmed it. I then stopped watching his videos… so don’t know how open that knowledge is nowadays. Some google fu should confirm it.
