Designed for Use in Aquatic System
High Adsorption Capacity
Does not Leech Phosphates
Fritz ProAquatics Carbon-AG is a high quality 4×8 mesh granular activated carbon ideal for use in fresh or saltwater aquariums with all types of filters. Fritz ProAquatics Carbon-AG removes Dissolved Organic Compounds (DOC), agents that discolor aquarium water and cause odors, chlorine and chloramines. Will not leach phosphate into the aquarium.
Fritz ProAquatics Carbon-AG is an acid washed 4 x 8 mesh activated carbon produced from bituminous coal by a high temperature activation process under stringent quality control. Fritz ProAquatics uses a special, patented, high pressure steam activation process that produces superior pore space throughout each individual granule. The Carbon is then washed in Hydrochloric Acid to reduce water and acid soluble compounds and improve purity. This treatment creates the porosity by leaving a carbon skeleton “sponge.” It has a large surface area (each ounce contains over 300,000 square feet of usable, adsorptive surface area), high mechanical hardness, high pore volume and chemical stability.
