6 Lbs Activated Carbon Charcoal in 6 Media Bags for Aquarium Fish Tank Pond Pellets Canister Air Filter AC x6

This activated carbon filter media is a blend of coconut shell, coal, and wood charcoal, designed to enhance water filtration efficiency, and is packaged in a mesh bag. The blend of coconut shell, coal, and wood charcoal improves water filtration efficiency by leveraging the unique properties of each material:1) Coconut shell carbon has a high density of micropores, which increases its surface area and adsorption capacity. This makes it particularly effective at removing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chlorine, pesticides, and herbicides from water; 2) Coal carbon has larger pores compared to coconut shell carbon, making it suitable for trapping larger contaminants like dust, pollen, and smoke particles. Its high adsorption capacity complements the fine filtration provided by coconut shell carbon;3) Wood charcoal offers a balance between micro- and macropores, allowing it to target a broader range of impurities. It also enhances the overall adsorption efficiency of the blend by filling gaps in pore size distribution. By combining these materials, the blend achieves a comprehensive filtration system capable of removing a wide spectrum of contaminants while maintaining high mechanical strength and durability. Ready to go, convenient for use in your filters. It helps remove odors, discoloration, and impurities to keep water crystal clear.

• Removes odors, discoloration, and impurities to keep water crystal clear. Fast working and long lasting.
• This activated carbon is packaged in a mesh media bag. A media bag allows the precise placement of carbon and ensure granular media doesn't travel through pumps and pipes.
• A blend of granular coconut shell, coal, and wood pellet activated carbon improves water filtration efficiency by leveraging the unique properties of each material.
• The zipper-design media bag is reusable. The zipper is made of plastic, and it's good to use in both freshwater and saltwater tank. The size of the media bag: 8 " x 5.5 "
• **AS WITH ALL CARBON, RINSE CARBON WELL BEFORE USE. **Friendly reminder: the mesh bag is inside the plastic bag.
