Seachem Matrix 500mL

Product details

Seachem Matrix 500mL (113) is a high-porosity biomedia designed for aquarium biofiltration. Used in wet or wet-dry filter systems, it supports beneficial bacteria that process nitrogenous waste, helping control ammonia and nitrite. Its internal macroporous structure is also intended to support bacterial activity that can contribute to nitrate removal as part of an established biological filter.

Features:

• Provides high-capacity biofiltration for nitrogenous waste removal
• Designed to help control ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate through supported bacterial populations
• Highly porous media with very large surface area (over ~700 m2 per liter)
• Porous inorganic solid with internal macropores that are sized to support nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria activity
• Supports both aerobic and anaerobic bacterial species in the same biomedia
• Completely inert biomedia that will not breakdown and does not need routine replacement
• May be rinsed when needed without damaging the filter because most bacteria are internal
• Compatible with all types of wet or wet-dry filters
