matthewY Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 This is actually a 2 part question, the first is... whats the difefrence between the aquaone bio noodles and the aqua one CeramiSub ... Looking on the back of teh containers, they have literally just subsituted the name.... is there a difference other then shape? 2nd, regarding drift wood, if the water from the tap ios buffered, I'm assuming driftwood would have little effect on the ph. If so, then is tehre any otehr benefits of adding driftwood to the water otehr then say cosmetic and for fish to hide in? Mainly talking for discus here.... Can the drift wood soften teh water without decreasing the ph if the water is hevely buffered or does it not work like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 It comes down to water flow and surface area. I use both in my external filters. I use the noodles as the first media water passes through as this takes out any large materials Second container is filled with the ceramic media as this filters out smaller particles. Both of these are porus so good for bacteria to grow on. With regards to drift wood. it is mostly cosmetic, unless you plan to put in some bristlenoses, in which case drift wood, would be beneficial.
