Nishikigoi Wakimizu Bakki Shower Media

Nishikigoi Wakimizu Bakki Shower Media is the biological filter media that loads the trays of a Wakimizu Bakki shower. As oxygen-rich pond water trickles down through the media, a huge population of beneficial bacteria colonizes every surface and converts dissolved wastes, ammonia and nitrite, into harmless nitrate. Choose the media that fits how you run your shower.

Two Media Options

• Wakimizu Media (100-piece box) — the standard high-surface-area media for the Nishikigoi Wakimizu Bakki showers. Sold by the 100-piece box.
• Nishikigoi Spiral House Media (30-piece box) — a spiral-form media that packs a large amount of biological surface area into each piece. Sold by the 30-piece box.

Both are designed to sit in the open-air trays of a Bakki shower, where constant oxygen exposure lets nitrifying bacteria work at full speed. Select your media from the Type option above.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which media should I use?
Both work in any Wakimizu Bakki shower. The Wakimizu Media (100-piece box) is the standard choice; the Spiral House Media (30-piece box) offers a different form factor with generous surface area per piece. Many keepers run a combination.

How much media do I need?
It depends on the width of your shower and how many trays you are filling. If you are not sure, tell us your shower model and we will help you work out the quantity.

Does a Bakki shower come with media?
No. Showers and media are sold separately so you can load the trays to suit your pond. See the Nishikigoi Wakimizu Bakki Shower.
