There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have several fish tanks that have plants and driftwood, which break down over time and increase the nutrient content and dissolved organics in my tanks. This stuff is so small that it can pass right through regular filter media.
So I went searching for answers. I purchased a better filter floss than I had been using, but that still wasn't getting me where I wanted to be. That filter floss combined with a polishing pad (50 microns) was good, but I needed a smaller micron.
At first I wasn't sure what I was going to find. I was thinking of purchasing felt. But I came across this stuff. The ratings weren't great. The advertisement said it wasn't suitable for aquatic use. But I took a chance. And I'm really glad I did.
First off, this stuff is thin. Really thin. It's meant for air filters. But the small micron number had my interest. In the pictures the material looks more rigid than it is. It's a thin piece of cloth. But looks are deceiving. Though it looks thin, it is mighty! In fact, in order to achieve that micron level, and still pass air through it, it might actually need to be thin.
When I got it, I was disappointed. I was certain I wasted money. And I was scared that I might hurt my fish using it. They do say it's not suitable for use in water. But.... It's the best freaking thing I've used to polish my tanks.
I took a serious gamble. I wasn't sure if I was about to kill everything in my tank. If this had been chemically treated with anything, it could've been devastating. I examined it and it felt and looked untreated. I rinsed it thoroughly. And I placed it between two pieces of filter floss and put it in my shrimp tank filter. I was scared to put it in such a delicate tank as my first experiment with this media, but ultimately that was the tank I needed the most help with polishing.
Shrimp are delicate. Things you'd normally do to reduce nutrients in a tank cannot be done in a shrimp tank. You can't increase water flow, you can't use chemicals, you can't even change large amounts of water. And most media that can go into the filters doesn't capture everything.
Well this stuff does it's job. I was so relieved when it didn't kill my shrimp. It captures so much more than regular media. Because it's thin, I have to place it thoughtfully in my filters. In general, I place it between other filter floss so it doesn't exhaust as quickly. It gets dirty fairly quickly, so I toss it out after a few days in my filters. This might seem high maintenance, but it's worth the results.
And if I'm really trying to polish my tanks, I'll use Acurel's clarifier (never in my shrimp tank) in combination with this media. It captures almost everything with this method. (You can also use a clarifier with your good bacteria. Turn off your UV sterilizer for a few days to let the bacteria establish itself, then put good bacteria in along with a clarifier and let it go to work. The clarifier clumps the bacteria together and makes it sticky. This let's it get caught in the filter where it's most useful).
This is an excellent solution for me and I'm very happy I found it. If you were going to give this a shot in your own tank, my recommendation is to rinse it and to change it often. If you're like me and you use a canister filter for your bigger tanks, I recommend finding an internal filter or HOB filter you can access easier. This isn't to replace the canister filter, but to have another filter for polishing your tank that's easier to access. For my larger tanks I really love the Marineland Magnum 200. I can use this media very easily in that filter, and clean it often and very quickly.
The material is thin so I can use it as a pre-filter for my room airfiltrer.
