Bio balls are the biological stage of a filter. Their job is to hold as much surface area as possible in a small space, giving the beneficial bacteria that convert ammonia and nitrite somewhere to colonise. This pack of 30 suits aquarium and pond filters alike.
Place in the biological chamber of your filter, after the mechanical stage so debris is caught before it reaches them. When cleaning, rinse only in old tank water, never under the tap. Chlorine in tap water kills the bacterial colony, which is the whole reason the bio balls are there in the first place. Stagger cleaning across the media if you can, rather than doing all of it at once.
