Combination of vast surface area and open/interconnected
pores allow a thin bio-film to develop.
This thin film allows bacteria to flourish because necessary
nutrients are immediately available.
With the open pores, old dead bio-film is easily flushed
from the media and will not plug the media.
Water flows through the media, not around as with other
denser medias, thus utilizing the most surface area for beneficial bacterial
growth.
