Our bio balls are made with high quality polypropylene. This allows us to ensure that our bio balls are sturdy and the pins will not be brittle and break off like some of the cheaper products out there that use lower grade materials.

Our bulkhead fittings are manufactured with the same ABS plastic which is widely used in the plumbing industry. Our fittings are black ABS and are also UV stabilized. Due to the UV stabilizer, our plastic bulkhead fittings will not crack when exposed in the elements.  We manufacture bulkhead fittings in a wide range of sizes and styles to meet small or large applications and to allow you to glue or thread connections based on your preference.

In our 20 plus years of business, we have managed to stay successful by having the highest quality bio balls  and bulkhead fittings available, plus treating each customer the same way we would like to be treated ourselves.

In 1997, Joseph Truhan had the vision of starting a business which would be a legacy that he could leave for his family. He decided to invest his hard-earned savings into developing his own company manufacturing bio balls and bulkhead fittings for aquariums and other industries.

Mr. Truhan loved to go fishing in the ocean, rivers and lakes. His love for fish extended to having an aquarium in his home. So, with his knowledge of maintaining an aquarium, he decided to get involved in the aquarium industry. Selling aquarium bio balls and bulkhead fittings were the end result.

Because the bio ball and bulkhead fittings market is so competitive, Joseph knew that he had to bring something different to the table in order to succeed. He knew that when you’re the manufacturer you control the quality, quantity and availability of your products to your customer. He figured it would be much better to make a few products so he could personally oversee quality control as opposed to having a wide variety of products were quality issues might slip through the cracks. Consequently, he decided to manufacture bio balls and bulkhead fittings and only bio balls and bulkhead fittings.
