Product Description
Description
Seachem matrix biological filtration is a 2 liter container of highly porous pumice-based bio media providing the ideal mid-range volume for serious hobbyists with medium to large aquariums needing superior biological filtration capacity. Matrix is widely regarded as one of the most effective biological filter media available due to its unique natural pumice stone composition that creates an incredibly complex internal pore network supporting both aerobic and anaerobic beneficial bacteria. The seachem matrix biological filtration works by providing an enormous surface area estimated at over 160000 square centimeters per liter for beneficial bacteria to colonize. The outer surfaces and shallow pores are colonized by aerobic nitrifying bacteria that convert toxic ammonia produced by fish waste into nitrite and then into less toxic nitrate. What makes Matrix truly exceptional is that the deep internal macropores create oxygen-depleted zones where anaerobic denitrifying bacteria establish and convert nitrate into harmless nitrogen gas. This complete nitrogen cycle processing within a single media is something conventional biological media like ceramic rings bio balls and plastic media cannot achieve. The practical benefit is that aquariums using Matrix typically maintain lower nitrate levels between water changes reducing the frequency of maintenance needed. The 2L volume is the most popular size for home aquariums suitable for tanks from 200 to 800 liters depending on bioload. Matrix can be used in canister filters hang-on-back filters sumps and any other filter system that accommodates loose media. The pumice stone is extremely durable and never needs replacement under normal conditions. Simply rinse in old aquarium water during routine maintenance to remove accumulated debris without harming the beneficial bacterial colonies. Matrix is completely inert and will not affect water chemistry pH or hardness. Safe for all freshwater marine and reef aquariums. Available at TaraPet the UAE trusted online pet and aquarium store with free delivery.

Seachem produces Matrix in 2L as the popular mid-range biological filtration media for home aquariums.
2 Liter Volume
The seachem matrix biological filtration in 2L serves medium to large tanks. Most popular size.
Dual Bacteria Support
Supports both aerobic nitrifiers and anaerobic denitrifiers simultaneously. The seachem matrix biological filtration hosts both.
Ammonia Conversion
Aerobic bacteria rapidly convert toxic ammonia to safer compounds. The seachem matrix biological filtration converts ammonia.
Nitrate Reduction
Anaerobic zones enable denitrification reducing nitrate levels naturally. The seachem matrix biological filtration reduces nitrate.
Huge Surface Area
Over 160000 sq cm per liter for massive bacterial colonization. The seachem matrix biological filtration provides area.
Natural Pumice
Made from natural pumice stone with complex internal pore network. The seachem matrix biological filtration is natural.
Lifetime Media
Stone never breaks down so replacement is never needed. The seachem matrix biological filtration lasts forever.
Canister Filter Use
Perfect for canister filters providing superior bio filtration capacity. The seachem matrix biological filtration fits canisters.
Less Maintenance
Lower nitrate means fewer water changes needed between maintenance. The seachem matrix biological filtration reduces work.
Easy Cleaning
Rinse in old tank water to clean without killing bacteria. The seachem matrix biological filtration cleans easily.
Chemistry Neutral
Does not affect pH hardness or any water chemistry parameters. The seachem matrix biological filtration stays neutral.
