Matrix is a porous inorganic solid about 10 mm in diameter. Each liter of Matrix provides as much surface (\u0026gt;~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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural biofilter support media\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor freshwater \u0026amp; saltwater aquariums\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse 250 ml of Matrix for every 25 gallons of water.
