    The product came open or that is without the protection seal as I have always received it. And it was missing carbon inside. it came in half the bottle.

    Wow definitely notice the difference from regular carbon and this. Cheaper on Amazon than my local fish and let stores. Definitely recommend Ive switched to Seachem everything for my mediums and water additives.

    This stuff is great! Instead of cylindrical bars or chunks of carbon, this is tiny beads of carbon. Rinses clear in seconds with very little dust particles. You dont need much either, half a cup for 50 gallons or so. I used to have to fill a mesh bag to get the same effects as this stuff.

    Pellet size carbon that does not release a lot of black dust when rinse. Helps minimize the order of the water.

    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 .

    This is much cheaper than buying individual bags of charcoal. I bought the little bags here on Amazon and now all I have to do is fill them with carbon and replace the carbon monthly. This is so much more economical than buying pre-packaged carbon.

    After 3 days of using this, vs regular carbon, even tried hypersorb, my wife asked what I did to make the water look so clear. The only thing I did different was use matrix carbon.

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.
