Description
Sicce AkuaClean is a 2-in-1 filter media that combines zeolite with a filter resin. It works as a high surface area molecular sieve that helps bind ammonia and other nitrogen-based pollutants, which can affect fish health and water quality.
As fish, food and plants break down, they release compounds that upset the balance of the aquarium. In nature these are diluted by huge volumes of water, but an aquarium carries a much heavier load in a small space, so removing them matters more. AkuaClean helps keep nutrient levels low, which in reef tanks supports healthy corals. It doesn’t affect pH and can help extend the time between water changes.
