Seachem MatrixCarbon™ – High-Performance Spherical Activated Carbon
MatrixCarbon™ is a high-efficiency, spherical activated carbon designed for optimal aquarium filtration. Formed as spherical beads, it ensures maximum water flow, prevents packing, and allows thorough contact with its macroporous binding sites. With very low ash content, it has minimal impact on pH, even in distilled water, and offers the lowest leachable phosphate content of any major carbon tested. Ideal for removing organic impurities, colored compounds, and trace contaminants, MatrixCarbon™ outperforms other high-grade carbons in adsorption capacity, rate, and longevity.
Key Features:
• High-efficiency spherical carbon beads for optimal water flow
• Very low ash content → minimal impact on pH
• Lowest leachable phosphate level on the market
• Macroporous structure removes larger organic molecules effectively
• Outperforms other carbons in total adsorption capacity and duration of use
• Ideal for reef, marine, and freshwater aquaria
How It Works:
• MatrixCarbon™ uses macropores to trap larger organic molecules, such as nitrogenous waste, while allowing full water penetration. Its unique spherical design maximizes hydrodynamics and prevents packing, ensuring efficient filtration in all types of filter setups.
