FAQ: How long does your Seachem MatrixCarbon™ last?

MatrixCarbon™ is the only spherical shaped carbon on the market. It will not compact and create dead zones due to restricted water flow, and, consequently will use up all available absorptive sites before exhaustion. Actual time depends on initial water conditions. In very dirty water, it may last as little as a few hours; in very clean water it may last several months. In general, 3 – 6 months is typical.
