Kusuri Lithaqua Media
Kusuri Lithaqua
Kusuri Lithaqua is a marine mineral with a high content of minerals, trace elements and carbonates. It brings them into your pond and thereby adjusts the mineral balance and improves the water quality. Use it as pond substrate for bacteria to grow on and for fish to play in, or use it as a filter medium.
Modern multi-chamber filters contain mainly plastic media. Those are excellent supports for bacteria but they do not add anything to water quality. It is important to fill at least one filter chamber (preferably the last chamber) with Kusuri Lithaqua. It provides an enormous surface area for bacteria 10 to 20 times more than most plastic filter media) and provides the bacteria with essential nutrients.
Kusuri Lithaqua neutralises acid pH and helps to restore carbonate alkalinity.
Lithaqua is a marine mineral high in trace elements and carbonates, ideal for raising KH values. A superb filter media of porous construction, allowing a huge surface area for the growth of beneficial bacteria.
Modern filter chambers contain many and varied plastic media, these provide good support – but Lithaqua goes one stage further. Not only do the beneficial bacteria draw on nutrients from the mineral support, the media has a massive surface area up to 20 times greater than most plastic media.
Lithaqua is a biological media not intended for mechanical stages.
Use Lithaqua in a clean water chamber after mechanical removal of waste. Lithaqua is far more efficient than crushed oyster shells, and the high level of carbonates will improve carbonate alkalinity in soft water regions, neutralising low acid pH and buffer swings in pH.
Oyster Shells
Oyster Shells
Oyster Shells have been used for years by Koi professionals to help with the pH of the water and to maintain optimal water conditions and is extensively used in Japan.
Since the Oyster Shells will generally raise the pH level in your water, these should only be used in cases of low pH.
Oyster Shell generally will raise the level of the pH.
For those that ever ever been to Japan, Oyster shell is used extensively by the breeders in Japan, these soluble (soft) shells are used to stabilise the pH.
Oyster shells stabilise the pH / KH-value which prevents pH crash. If the KH value drops to this starts to dissolve the shells until balance is reached again. Nitrifying bacteria also grows on the oyster shell.

Small fish should be kept separate until they are large enough to be introduced to the pond.
Please Note: These spawning brushes are made from a soft material that won’t harm your fish. DO NOT USE filter brushes for this purpose
Mountain Tree Spawning Brush
Mountain Tree Spawning Brush
The spawning brush emulates natural koi spawning environment. During the spawning period, koi are sensitive to the environment. Without a comfy, soft home, they may spawn on hard rocks and walls. Thus providing them a comfy home for eggs growth is essential part of success spawning.
- Soft and resilient filaments, non-toxic, safe for fish egg
- Stainless steel core can be bent when being used
- 1 loop or 2 loops at ends optional , easy for installation and maintaining
- Modest density for collecting fish eggs ensure high survival rate
Comfy Home for Fish Egg Growth
During this special period, koi are sensitive to the environment. Without a comfy, soft home, they may spawn on hard rocks and walls. Meanwhile, touching coarse material in a pond can lead to a risk of injury or unsuccessful spawning.
The Mountain Tree Spawning Brush is made of soft stainless steel coupled with appropriately dense nylon filaments. Fish will feel a smooth, comfortable surface that they can lay eggs on.
