I felt that we as fish keeper very ks hahha put many media. According to biohome 1kg treat 3000l. Of cos it depends bio load etc. My pond is 700l. Means 1kg is already 4 times more. And after testing. Its more then enough to handle my 22 small 3 inch goldfish.

Maxspear. Come in 2kg. I already place 1 kg in hahaha as back up

i feel cannot use the water volume formula. bio load is hard to judge. try to get the best. can use the remaining bio spheres to have better result and seed them need time.

It looks the same as matrix. Guess can use. The price is very good. 1kg at $3. 1l matrix is 400g and is 10+. I always look at the surface area vs the price. I'm using bio home and marine pure at the moment. May I know how many balls in a 2kg pack? Thanks.

Hahaha looks the same does not mean inside all same. If anything goes wrong. Then all your previous investment all gone to waste liao haha.

Im in japan now. Only back in jan haha. Will count for u when im back. And surface area vs price is how i judge too. However all seller will say they have xxx number of surface area etc. Its up to them to put whatever they want. Hahah

yes maybe can try on others first. Can get gf and koi. Should be good quality. I don't think they dare to fake on the surface area. Especially is from USA.

Ya lor. With 1kg of biohome and 1kg of max sp. My 22 goldfish all doing well and growing fast. No death so far. And water condition is ok too. My pond only abt 600l. Already way over filter. Im testing to see whether this works. As i think we all place too much media for our tank. Which is under utilize.
