-==== Biofilm ====
-The use of sand filtration in iAVS promotes the growth of beneficial biofilms and diatoms. Biofilms are thin layers of microorganisms that form on surfaces in aquatic environments, including sand particles. These biofilms play an important role in nutrient cycling within iAVS by breaking down organic matter and releasing nutrients back into the water as they grow and reproduce.
