The "Latest and Greatest" in the bead type media is something called
Kaldnes. To get the maximum out of it, you need to install hefty airstones,
manifolds, or the type of air hose used in sewage treatment plants to "roil"
the media with air. It becomes self-stripping, self-renewing, and adds a lot
of oxygen to the water. It's designed to be used in open containers, not
pressurized filters.

The beads used by the bead filter manufacturers is a low density (around .95
specific gravity) polyethylene bead. Find someone making milk bottles, of
something similar and see if you can buy the beads that they use in their
manufacturing process. When I got my bubblebead filter it came with a bag
of beads from Dupont or Dow. I forget.

we have a plastic factory that has an outlet type store. According to
the direction on the bead filter , you need beads that are not totally
smooth . The example was to put them into a cement mixer with sands. I
did find mail order out west that sell beads. I currently trying find
out whether kaldnes beads would be ideal for what i want to do.
Cleaning is a big question I'm still trying figure out. Power wash
, aeration .
