Kolar Filtration Metabolix Bio Pellets are a premium filter media designed to naturally reduce nitrate and phosphate levels in saltwater reef aquariums. Made from pure, high-quality PHA, these pellets provide a solid carbon source to cultivate beneficial bacteria. As the bacteria consume the pellets and aquarium nutrients, they are exported from the system via a protein skimmer, resulting in a cleaner, healthier environment for your corals and fish.

These bio pellets are manufactured by Kolar Filtration under strict quality control, ensuring exceptional purity and performance. Their patented, plump round pearl shape has been proven to fluidize exceptionally well in a media reactor, minimizing the clumping and floating that can plague lesser quality pellets. This superior fluidization ensures consistent bacterial colonization and efficient nutrient reduction without the need for constant adjustment or maintenance.

This product is ideal for reef aquarists seeking precise control over their aquarium's nutrient levels, particularly those keeping sensitive SPS corals. For best results, use these pellets in a recirculating media reactor, which allows for fine-tuning of the flow and nutrient export rate. This method provides the ability to maintain ultra-low nutrient conditions or intentionally leave trace nitrate levels to enhance coral coloration, making it a versatile solution for both advanced hobbyists and those looking to elevate their reef-keeping.
