    Although not the cheapest choice in active carbon i belive its by far the best choice and all i will use in my reef system, lowest phosphorus levels of any carbon , spearical shape allows for better flow as well as more surface area also due to spherical shape. Keeps my water spotless and safe for critters, i like to change every 2 weeks as i feel as it still may be working in my 100 gallon its mostly exhausted .

    Well, i change the review of this product because I mistakingly with other product that I bought, I put the Seachem Carbon in the nylon bag and put into hang on filter which help to clear the water on my 30 gallons salt water tank, so far i dont have any fish or coral going bad yet, I just have the tank 3 months, with 10 fish in cluding 1 copperband butterfly, ( i know it ricky for 30 gal tank but sofar the fish still beautiful and actively) several damsel,and cloud fishes.

    As with most other Seachem products this one is no different. I am using this in my Fluval 307 canister filter for my 45 gallon freshwater aquarium. I have decided to go with this to save on spending money on the Fluval charcoal inserts. So far I have been pleased with the performance of this product. I am using nylon bags in my filter and I have had no problems.

    Great carbon. Best I have used in years. Lasts about a month, depending on your flow rate. Highly recommended. Costs a but more, but its worth it.

    Product works perfect and just as described. I highly recomend this product for any fish tank along with some purigen.

Matrix carbon is a truly unique Activated carbon. It is formed as a spherical bead for optimum hydrodynamics, and will not pack. It permits maximum water flow and contact with its high density of microporous binding sites. Matrix carbon has a very low ash content as indicated by its minimal impact on ph. Even when added to distilled water, it does not raise pH above 7.0. While all carbons contain phosphate, regardless of false claims to the contrary, matrix carbon has the Lowest detectable leachable phosphate content of all major carbon brands tested. Matrix carbon outperforms other high grade carbons by at least two-fold when compared for total capacity to remove aquarium organic matter, rate of adsorption, and duration of use.
