Description
A highly porous media designed to provide exceptionally efficient biofiltration for single site removal of ammonia,nitrite,& nitrate from fresh & saltwater.
Key Features:
- Aerobic bacteria grow on the pitted external surfaces of Matrix™ and convert ammonia to nitrite and nitrite to nitrate
- These pores which cover Matrix™ are home to anaerobic bacteria
- Anaerobic bacteria convert nitrate into nitrogen gas, which is then expelled at the tank surface
- Each liter of Matrix provides over 160,000 cm2 of surface
