Product Description

Seachem Matrix comprises highly-porous biomedia that promotes efficient bio filtration in the aquarium.

With efficient bio-filtration process, nitrogenous wastes are quickly removed naturally by denitrifying bacteria that break down these nitrogenous compounds.

Seachem Matrix ensures that toxins are neutralised promptly so that aquarium water remains safe for fishes, corals and plants at all times.

High capacity biofiltration

Controls ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate

Highly porous. Extremely large surface area.

Supports aerobic and anaerobic denitrifying bacteria

No filter bag is required

Will not breakdown (a permanent media)

Can be washed

Permanent Bio Filter Media

Seachem Matrix is completely inert and will not breakdown. Hence, you will never lose filtration capacity, and you will never need to replace them.

The only time you need to add more Seachem Matrix is when you need to increase the biofiltration capacity due to an increase in aquatic creatures that cause a rise in nitrogenous wastes, or when you have upgraded to a larger tank. Other than that, Seachem Matrix need not be replaced.

Since the majority of the bacteria are internal, Seachem Matrix may be rinsed whenever needed without damaging the filter.

Specifications

Seachem Matrix is:

Porous inorganic solid

Completely inert and will not breakdown

Each bio media is about 10 mm in diameter

1 liter of Seachem Matrix provides as much surface area (approx > 700 m2) as 170 liters of plastic balls!

Seachem Matrix vs Plastic Bio

Plastic bio-materials provide only external surface area, whereas Seachem Matrix provides both external and internal macroporous surface area.

These macropores are ideally sized for the support of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria.

This allows Seachem Matrix, unlike other forms of biomedia, to remove nitrate along with ammonia and nitrite, simultaneously and in the same filter.
