Seachem Matrix™ – High-Porosity Biofiltration Media
Seachem Matrix™ is a premium, high-efficiency biological filtration media designed to support the complete nitrogen cycle within freshwater and marine aquariums. Composed of a durable, porous inorganic solid approximately 10 mm in diameter, Matrix™ offers an extensive internal and external surface area exceeding 700 m² per liter—far surpassing traditional plastic bio-media.
Unlike conventional media that provide only external surface for bacterial colonization, Matrix™ features macroporous structures that support both nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria. This allows for the effective removal of ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate within the same filter environment, promoting a healthier and more stable aquatic system.
