The result is clearer water for longer between cleanouts, and a safer environment for small fish or aquatic plants in the bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBiological Filtration for the Compact Fountain Bowl\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMechanical filtration captures solid particles, but dissolved ammonia and nitrite from fish waste pass through mechanical media unchanged. Biological filtration converts those compounds into less harmful nitrate, reducing water quality deterioration between maintenance cycles.

Fill the bowl, add beneficial bacteria starter culture, and allow 2 to 4 weeks for the bacterial colony to establish before adding fish.
