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 (>~700 m2) as 170 liters of plastic balls! Plastic bio-materials provide only external surface area, whereas Matrix� provides both external and 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. 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.

Sizes: 100 mL 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 2 L, 4 L, 20 L, 100 L

Directions

Use 500 mL of Matrix� for each 200 L (50 gallons*) of water. Matrix� may be placed in any kind of filter, and is particularly effective in a canister filter. Matrix� is sufficiently large that no filter bag should be required for most applications. Matrix� works well in drip tray systems, but you may find that the larger Pond Matrix� is better suited for such applications.
