Matala Blue Filter Pad 39.5" x 24" x 1.5" Half Sheet Media

product description:

Biological Filter. (Water purification) As you know, a good biofilter needs a lot of surface area with open spaces between for good aerated water flow. A high surface area is useless if the passageways are so small that water flow cannot penetrate. The filter must provide an even distribution of water flow to prohibit channeling and anaerobic conditions. The filter must also have interstitial spaces which are the small areas directly between the filter media which provides an area where the bacteria can fill up in a bacterial matrix. Usually the water flow through these spaces moves a little slower than in more open areas. This provides an aerobic flow of slow moving water and is an excellent environment for a stable population of bacteria to grow in. The Blue and Gray Matala® provides for these requirements. Did you know that a biofilter produces its own waste called detritus? Even with total prefiltration some biofilters can plug themselves up with detritus.
