Benefits:
Classic Activated Carbons prime application is as a purifier and clarifier. It is a highly
effective absorbent with a large internal surface area. Its vast porous structure allows it
to catch unwanted contaminants from all aquaria. Its major treatment objective is the
removal of dissolved organics as well as suspended solids and residual oxidants (chlorine
and ozone). In addition, Classic Activated Carbon will aid in the removal of odor organics,
micro pollutants and medications.
Directions:
For best results use ½ lb for every 50 gallons (189 liters) of aquarium water. Classic
Activated Carbon has not been washed with chemicals, acids, or hydroxides. Therefore, it is
necessary to thoroughly rinse with cold water. Following this rinsing process we recommend
placing the carbon in a filter media bag. Place in high flow area of filter to maximize
water flow through the media. For best results, replace carbon at least once per month.
Classic Activated Carbon is ideal for use in all types of power filters, wet dry filters,
canister or modular filters.
