MATRIX™ 2L Seachem

Matrix Seachem 2 L – High Capacity Biological Media

Matrix is an extremely porous inorganic biofiltration support, offering an active surface area exceeding 700 m² per liter. This unique structure allows for the simultaneous development of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria in the same media.

Key Points

Operating Principle

Unlike plastic bio-media limited to an external surface, Matrix has an internal and external macroporous structure. The pores are specifically sized to host aerobic bacteria on the surface and anaerobic bacteria deeper inside.

This design allows for the simultaneous removal of ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates in a single filter, without requiring very slow flow areas.

Installation and Compatibility

Usage and Maintenance

Matrix is completely inert and does not deplete over time. Since bacteria are primarily housed inside the media, it can be rinsed occasionally without significant loss of biological efficiency.

Regular maintenance of the filtration system helps prevent clogging and maintains optimal performance.

Biofilter Optimization

To accelerate the establishment of the biofilter, Matrix can be combined with Stability. If there is an increased need for low-flow denitrification, the complementary use of de❊nitrate can be considered.
