About the product
- FILTRATION: Seachem Matrix is a high porosity, inorganic solid biomedia that provides efficient biofiltration for the removal of nitrogenous waste in your fish tank or aquarium.
- DIAMETER: Measuring about 10mm in diameter, each liter of Matrix provides as much surface (>~700m²) as 170 liters of plastic balls! Matrix provides both external and internal macroporous surface area.
- MACROPORES: These Matrix macropores are ideally sized for the support of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria, allowing Matrix to simultaneously remove nitrate along with ammonia and nitrite in the same filter.
- USE: Use 250 mL of Matrix for each 200 L (50 US gallons) of water. Matrix may be placed in any kind of filter, wet or dry, and is particularly effective in a canister filter while also working well in drip tray systems.
- CARE: Matrix is completely inert and will not breakdown, so no replacement is necessary! Since the majority of bacteria are internal, Matrix may be rinsed when needed without damaging the filter.
