Description

SeaChem 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 (<162 m) as 40 liters of plastic balls! Plastic bio-materials provide only external surface area, whereas Matrix provides 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. Use 1-2 Liters of Matrix for each 100 gallons. 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. Marine or freshwater use.

Excellent!

Best thing for Nitrate Blues by Gozer_1

Experience Level: Beginner

Posted on 9/30/2007 from MONTROSE, CO UNITED STATES

Comments: I have been using Matrix in combination with DeNitrate for several months and with in a couple months it had made a notice able difference. What Nitrites I did have show up were gone. The tests are crystal clear! No pink! Well the Nitrate test turns up the same, no pink. I use 1 Liter of Matrix with 1 Liter of DeNitrate in a 2 tray canister on a 55 Gal. Reef. I have recently added 2 Liters of each to my 150 Gal. Fresh. The results I have had leave no doubt in my mind as to the quality of this product.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
