Kaldnes Moving Bed K1 Bio Media
Developed by Professor Halvard Odergard at Trondheim
University of Science and Technology the Kaldnes Moving
Bed™ bio film process has been designed specifically to create
the most effective environment for the nitrification process to
take place. The media is engineered in a wheel shape and is
slightly positively buoyant, allowing a small amount of water flow
(created by adding air to the process) to circulate the media
throughout the vessel.
Oxygen and food (Ammonia and Nitrites) gives the bacteria the
means to grow, whilst the Kaldnes media provides maximum
surface area for the bacteria to colonise and produce bio film. It
is this process, which removes harmful ammonia and nitrite from
the water.

As the Kaldnes media chaotically circulates within the bio tank, it causes old dead bacteria/bio film on the outside,
to be removed making space for new younger heavier feeding bacteria/bio films to colonise. Within the wheel, is
a protected surface, which enables colonies of bacteria to naturally follow their life cycle, maturing and dying, in
turn fuelling the latter stages of the nitrification conversion process. It also assists in the breakdown of any small
particles passing through from the mechanical stage. Therefore, the Kaldnes media maintains both a young bio
film and a maturing bio film providing a more consistent filter performance, whilst improving water quality,
encouraging healthier Koi and aiding in reducing green water and blanket weed.
For best result, add 25% Bio Chips to the K1 media. Click here to learn more about the all new Kaldnes Bio Chip

Kaldnes Moving Bed K3 Bio Media
Kaldnes K3 media is similar in application to Kaldnes K1 media,
in that the constant chaotic movement of the air from your pump
causes the media to self-clean and thus requires no
maintenance. K3 media is different than K1 media, as it is
designed to be used in the retrofitting of existing filters bays as
the slightly larger media size allow for easier configuration and
control.

50 Liter bags = 1.77 cubic feet of media.
