Mountain Tree Lotus Root Bacteria House - Marine

Mountain Tree Lotus Root Bacteria House MKIII – Marine

The Mountain Tree Lotus Root Bacteria House MKIII – Marine is a premium ceramic biological filtration media specifically engineered for marine aquariums and reef systems. Designed with Mountain Tree’s advanced 3D lotus root structure, this highly porous ceramic media provides an exceptionally large surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonise, helping establish a powerful and stable biological filtration system.

The specialised marine formulation features a low-silicate ceramic composition, making it safe for sensitive reef environments. This helps reduce the risk of nuisance algae while remaining friendly to corals, fish and other marine organisms.

With a specific surface area of up to 6618 m² per litre, the MKIII Marine provides a vast habitat for nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria that efficiently break down ammonia, nitrite and nitrate within marine filtration systems.

The unique lotus root and spiral internal structure allows water to flow freely through the media, maximising contact time and oxygen exchange while maintaining optimal conditions for beneficial microbial growth. In addition, the ceramic matrix contains trace elements such as sodium, magnesium, calcium and strontium, which can support coral health and help maintain a balanced marine ecosystem.

Durable and long-lasting, the Mountain Tree Lotus Root Bacteria House MKIII – Marine offers a highly efficient biological filtration solution for reef aquariums, marine fish systems and professional aquatic installations.
