Description
Bio-Media Floating and Mobile - Advanced Biological Filtration
Download and make your own FIL17-3D Apiobi bio-media with your 3D printer: floating, mobile and high-performance, perfectly printable in PETG or HDPE, for professional-level biological filtration.
Presentation
Ce bio-media 3D innovant a été spécialement conçu pour offrir une filtration biologique optimale, comparable aux modèles haut de gamme du marché.
Sa grande surface spécifique et sa géométrie interne optimisée favorisent une colonisation massive de bactéries bénéfiques, garantissant une eau claire, stable et saine.
Key features
Versatile and adaptable
- Fonctionne en filtration flottante, moving bed, lit fluidisé, ou filtration ruisselante.
Ideal dimensions
- Ø 17 mm × height 17 mm, designed for fluid water flow and maximum oxygenation.
Easy to print and produce
- Weight per piece : 1 g → Avec 1 kg de filament, vous pouvez fabriquer de970 à 1000 unités.
- Simple, fast and repeatable printing.
HDPE recommended
- Ultra-light, highly durable, chemical-resistant.
- Offers a natural buoyancy perfect for moving systems.
- Ideal for continuous use in freshwater or marine environments.
Durable and reliable
- Lightweight yet robust, designed not to clog pumps and filters.
- Resistant to abrasion and prolonged aeration cycles.
Filtration performance
- Exceptional surface-to-volume ratio guarantees powerful biological filtration without overloading the system.
Total control
- Print exactly the quantity you need → no surplus, no unnecessary expenses.
For whom?
Idéal pour les aquariophiles exigeants, les aquaculteurs, les professionnels de la filtration et tous ceux qui recherchent un bio-média plus performant, plus économique et entièrement personnalisable.
Technical Tips for 3D Printing
Printing recommendations
This bio-media was designed to be quick and easy to print, The right settings and materials are needed for prolonged immersion.
Recommended materials
- PETG (recommended)
This is the material I use for my own bio-medias (in white, as in the photos).
Durable, stable, non-breakable and very easy to print. - HDPE
The best choice if your printer can handle it.
More expensive and more technical to print (shrinkage, warping), but extremely resistant, flexible and chemically inert - ideal for long-term use in aquariums and ponds.HDPE characteristics- Temperature resistance over 110°C
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Excellent resistance to abrasion and cracking
- Very low moisture absorption
- UV-stable and weather-resistant
- And why not a technical filament certified for food contact? Unless I'm mistaken, no commercially available media offer this option, which is only available in 3D printing!
- Absolutely avoid PLA
PLA becomes brittle, swells and disintegrates on prolonged contact with water: totally inadequate media subject to numerous constraints, including constant friction 24/24 .
Recommended print settings
- Nozzle : 0.4 mm maximum
- Layer height : 0.2 mm
- Walls : 0
- High/low layers : 0
- Infill : Gyroid 20 % (provides an excellent internal surface, perfect for bacterial colonization)
These settings produce bio-media lightweight, functional and high-performance, The internal geometry is ideal for biological filtration systems (moving bed, trickling, etc.).
