Does that mean any bio-medias can work cause they are definitely more porous than LR, Why not buy something cheap like:

rather than the more expensive and hard to get Siporax? Is it proved Siporax work much better than other bio-medias, if so how much better?
Something about Siporax being made of glass and pore size makes it better, I think. I really haven't delved into it much. I just know it works to lower nutrients if you do it right.

Check out this monster thread, and maybe if you feel like sifting through all 669 replies (currently) you can come back and let us know what you learned! http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh....php?t=2526998 "Reefvet" is the biologist I was referring to earlier. I followed the thread for the first few pages, but not after that.
