FLUVAL FILTER MEDIA
Carbon ( Mid, or Lower Level Media Baskets)
A-1440 (3-pk., nylon bags, 100g ea.)
A1445 (375g)
A1447 (900g)
A-1448 (1650g)
Fluval Carbon—a premium, research grade, low-ash carbon—improves water clarity and
color, while also removing odors. Highly porous, it provides large amounts of surface
area for adsorption of impurities. It effectively removes heavy metals, odors,
discolorations, organic contaminants, and pollutants to leave your aquarium water
crystal clear and sparkling. This product does not release phosphates.
Carbon loses its activity without outward sign. Replace monthly to ensure that active
adsorption is maintained.
Carbon should always be removed when medication is being administered in aquarium
water. Also, because carbon will adsorb a large percentage of the nutrients in plant
fertilizer products, it should be used carefully when keeping live plants.
For freshwater and marine environments.
Foam Inserts (For Foam Screen)
A220 (2-pk, for 105)
A222 (2-pk, for 205, 305)
A226 (2-pk, for 405)
Fluval Foam Inserts capture large particles for effective mechanical filtration, the crucial
first stage in the filtration process. Custom fit to prevent bypass, they have a pore size
that allows efficient water flow with less clogging for long-lasting filtration. These
inserts also enhance biological filtration.
For freshwater and marine environments.
Peat Granules ( Mid Media Baskets)
A1465 (725g)
Fluval Peat Granules are the all-natural way to soften aquarium water and achieve the
pH levels required for breeding and rearing certain tropical fish. Peat contains humic
acid, tanning agents, and trace elements that are essential for various life processes.
Highly concentrated for maximum effectiveness, this product is recommended for fish
that prefer soft, acidic water.
To ensure optimal conditions, it's best to test with Nutrafin pH and KH test kits on a
regular basis to verify that desired levels are being maintained. A KH range of 50-120
mg/L (approximately 3-7 dKH) is usually recommended for fish that thrive in soft, acidic
water. (Use Nutrafin pH Stabilizer for superior results in maintaining an optimal KH value.)
Replace when pH and KH levels begin to diminish.
For freshwater use only.
