Matrix™ is a porous inorganic solid about 10 mm in diameter. Each liter of Matrix™ provides as much surface (\u0026gt;~700 m\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e) 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\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatrix™ 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seachem","offers":[{"title":"250ml","offer_id":46326483222841,"sku":"SC01060","price":6.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500ml","offer_id":46326485385529,"sku":"SC01130","price":11.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0785\/6085\/4329\/files\/seachem-matrix-ruby-mountain-aquarium-supply.jpg?v=1704761010","url":"https:\/\/19d36d.myshopify.com\/products\/seachem-matrix","provider":"Ruby Mountain Aquarium supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
