• Highly porous - enormous surface area (>~700 m2/L)
• Supports aerobic and anaerobic bacteria species

Matrix™ is a high porosity biomedia that provides efficient biofiltration for the removal of nitrogenous waste. Matrix™ is a porous inorganic solid about 10 mm in diameter. Each liter of Matrix™ provides as much surface (>~700 m²) as 170 liters of plastic balls! Plastic bio-materials provide only external surface area, whereas Matrix™ provides both external and internal macroporous surface area. These macropores are ideally sized for the support of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria. This allows Matrix™, unlike other forms of biomedia, to remove nitrate along with ammonia and nitrite, simultaneously and in the same filter.

Matrix™ is completely inert and will not breakdown. It need not be replaced. Since the majority of the bacteria are internal, Matrix™ may be rinsed when needed without damaging the filter. Matrix™ is compatible with all types of wet or wet-dry filters.

Benefits:

• Great for upgrading your old filter media
• Easy to clean
• Can be used in multiple types of filters like canister filter, top filters, sump filters
• Highly porous media with a large surface area perfect for colonising nitrifying bacteria.

Use 500 mL of Matrix™ for each 200 L of water.
