Fluval G6 3-Pack Aquarium Cartridges Filter Media
Three Fluval G6 cartridges are included in this Value Pack. The first is the G6 Fine Pre-Filter Cartridge which is designed for daily use in marine aquariums where suspended debris is minimal, or it can be used as a polishing cartridge for fresh water aquariums. The fine mesh will trap debris 75μ (micron) or larger for unparalleled mechanical filtering results. Designed as a no by-pass system, debris remains caught between each pleat until it is removed and rinsed. However, solid wastes can break down into soluble wastes and regular cartridge rinsing is recommended. The effectiveness of Fluvial Gs pre-filtration process means that less solid waste is solubilized in the aquarium water, which results in less waste accumulation and improved chemical and biological filtration efficiency. The second cartridge is also designed for use in the Fluvial G6 Filter, the Fluvial G6 Nitrate adsorbing cartridge will remove up to 24000 mg of nitrate ion in fresh water aquariums. Nitrate concentration should not exceed 20 mg/L in freshwater aquariums. Planted aquariums require approximately 5 mg/L of nitrate as a source of nitrogen for healthy plant growth. The last cartridge in the Value Pack is the Fluvial G6 Phosphate adsorbing cartridge will rapidly remove up to 3900 mg of phosphate ion from marine or fresh water aquariums.
