API Super Activated Carbon is a high-porosity activated carbon filter media in a convenient, ready-to-use pouch. Its porous structure gives a large surface area to absorb dissolved organics, discolouration, toxins and odours, helping keep your aquarium water clean, clear and fresh.

It also removes fish medications from the water once treatment is finished. Super Activated Carbon won’t raise phosphate levels or affect pH, so it won’t upset your water chemistry. It suits both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

Key Features

• High-Porosity Carbon: Large surface area for effective absorption
• Removes Impurities: Dissolved organics, discolouration, toxins and odours
• Removes Medications: Helps clear leftover treatments after medicating
• Phosphate-Free: Won’t raise phosphate levels
• pH Stable: Won’t affect aquarium pH
• Ready to Use: Pre-filled pouch for easy placement

How to Use

1. Rinse the pouch in old aquarium water to remove any carbon dust.
2. Place it in your filter where water flows through it, ideally after mechanical filtration such as sponges or floss.
3. Replace it when water starts to discolour or smell, or as directed on the pack.

Please note: Don’t rinse it in tap water, as chlorine can reduce its effectiveness. Carbon becomes exhausted over time and should be replaced regularly. Keep out of reach of children.

Suitable For: Freshwater, marine and reef aquariums with a filter that has space for a media pouch.
