CARBON REEF SPEC

500ml

Marine Aquarium Carbon

The particle size of Reef Spec Carbon and its micro/macro porous structure guarantee a very high total absorption capacity and a rapid reduction of organic pollutants found in marine aquariums.

REEF-SPEC ™ Carbon has an extremely low phosphate release and a minimal ash content and does not affect the pH of the water in any way.

Red Sea REEF-SPEC ™ Carbon needs to be replaced less frequently than classic non-specific reef or lower quality carbons and represents an effective and economical solution to provide the best water quality in marine and reef aquariums.

Rapid removal of organic pollutants
High total adsorption capacity
Ultra-low phosphate release
Ultra-low ash content
Suitable for seawater and freshwater
Filter bag included

pH in distilled water: >8
Phosphate release 0.000001 g / ml

Advice:

The adsorption activity of carbon relies on good carbon/water contact and therefore a moderate water flow will increase the efficiency. A strong water flow, on the other hand, will reduce the contact time and interfere with the adhesion process of organic molecules to the carbon. A strong water flow can also cause the granules to fuse with each other, releasing carbon debris into the water.

Remove any residue by rinsing the carbon under tap water.
Due to the air trapped in the pores, the carbon floats and therefore it is recommended to immerse it in osmosis water until all the air has been released.
Place the carbon in a place with a flow of 1000-1500 l/h (250-400 g/h) per 50 gr.
Replace the carbon every 1.5 - 2 months.
