Aquaforest AF Carbon is a high-quality, steam-activated granulated carbon designed for both freshwater and marine aquariums.
It effectively removes undesirable chemical compounds, improving water clarity without releasing phosphates into the water column.
Key Features:
Steam Activated, Phosphate-Free Unlike phosphate-activated alternatives, this carbon is steam-activated and phosphate-free, making it safe for mixed-reef systems, especially those with SPS corals.
Effective Adsorption Efficiently binds and removes impurities, organic pollutants, heavy metals, medication residues, and discoloring compounds, enhancing clarity.
Versatile Use Suitable for use in fluidized reactors or filter media bags; rinse with RODI/RO before use for optimal performance.
Recommended Dosage & Flow Use 100 ml per 100 L of water in marine tanks (or 100 L of saltwater / 200 L freshwater), with a flow rate up to 500 L/h through the media.
Change Frequency Replace carbon every 4 weeks to maintain adsorption efficacy.
Size & Packaging Supplied in a 1000 ml bag, weighing approximately 0.7 kg net (around 0.8 kg packaged).
