Brightwell Aquatics Xport Ca HemiXSpheres
Overview
Brightwell Aquatics Xport Ca HemiXSpheres are high-performance, ultra-porous calcium-based filtration spheres designed for advanced biological and chemical filtration in marine, reef, and hard freshwater aquariums. Utilizing Brightwell’s NanoIntelex technology, each hemisphere provides extreme surface area and microstructure optimized for beneficial bacterial colonization while gradually releasing trace calcium and maintaining a stable, natural marine pH environment. These hemispherical media pieces are ideal for sumps, canisters, or refugiums where both biological stability and mineral support are desired.
Key Features
-
Dual-action functionality: Acts as both biological filtration media and a calcium source for reef-building organisms
-
NanoIntelex technology: Provides optimized pore structure for maximum bacterial colonization and efficiency
-
Gradual calcium release: Helps buffer pH and maintain essential mineral balance in marine and reef systems
-
Ultra-high surface area: Supports nitrifying and denitrifying bacterial populations for superior water quality
-
Chemically stable and inert: Does not leach harmful compounds or alter water chemistry beyond safe calcium release
-
Ideal shape and density: Hemispherical design maximizes packing efficiency and contact area in filtration systems
-
Long lifespan: Can be used indefinitely with routine maintenance rinsing
-
Compatible with Brightwell bacterial products such as MicroBacter7, MicroBacter Clean, and MicroBacter Start XLM for best results
