{"product_id":"seachem-matrix-bio-media-500-ml","title":"Seachem Matrix Bio-Media - 500 ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eMatrix™ is a high porosity biomedia that provides efficient biofiltration for the removal of nitrogenous waste. 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\/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\n\u003cp\u003eSizes: 100 mL 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 2 L, 4 L, 20 L, 100 L\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seachem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47838798184770,"sku":"000116011303","price":8.26,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0849\/4330\/7074\/files\/matrix_500_ml_5.jpg?v=1708478573","url":"https:\/\/petwholesale.ca\/products\/seachem-matrix-bio-media-500-ml","provider":"Pet Wholesale Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
