The mechanical filter media helps to retain suspended matter and dirt particles before the subsequent filtration stages.
EHEIM MECH and EHEIM MECHpro pre-filter media act upstream in the cleaning process to protect biological media and improve overall filtration efficiency.
EHEIM FIX can be used as a separation layer between mechanical and biological filter media. For fine filtration at the end of the cycle, before the water returns to the aquarium, the EHEIM SYNTH filter floss is particularly suitable.
EHEIM Mech Pro is a pre-filter material designed to retain even small dirt particles. Its spiral shape slows down the water flow and allows for effective capture of impurities.
The high-quality plastic used is completely neutral for the water, facilitating cleaning without leaving residues. The surface structure also promotes colonization by purifying bacteria, allowing for additional biological water treatment.
MECHpro is perfectly suited for combined use with biological media such as EHEIM SUBSTRATpro or bioMECH.
