Brightwell Aquatics Xport Ca HeXiDiscs
Overview
Brightwell Aquatics Xport Ca HeXiDiscs are advanced, ultra-porous calcium-based biological filtration media engineered for superior water quality and long-term stability in marine, reef, and hard freshwater aquariums. Each HeXiDisc is crafted with NanoIntelex technology to create a unique hexagonal design that maximizes surface area, flow contact, and bacterial colonization efficiency. Infused with aragonite, these discs not only provide exceptional biological filtration but also help maintain calcium and pH balance at the bacteria level—perfect for reef systems and high-bioload tanks.
Key Features
-
Dual-purpose filtration media that supports both nitrifying and denitrifying bacterial growth
-
NanoIntelex high-porosity structure provides enormous surface area for rapid biological colonization
-
Infused with aragonite, which gradually releases calcium to help buffer pH and support coral growth
-
Hexagonal disc design allows efficient stacking or layering for optimal water flow and packing density
-
Promotes stable nitrogen cycling, reducing ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate naturally
-
Chemically inert and phosphate-free — will not leach or alter water chemistry adversely
-
Durable and long-lasting, suitable for indefinite use with occasional cleaning
-
Ideal for use in sumps, canister filters, media trays, or refugiums
-
Works synergistically with Brightwell MicroBacter7, MicroBacter Clean, and MicroBacter Start XLM for best results
