Seachem de*nitrate is a high-performance biological filter media designed to support the removal of nitrate, nitrite, and ammonia in aquarium systems. Its highly porous structure provides a vast surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonize, helping to maintain a cleaner and healthier aquatic environment.
Unlike sulfur-based alternatives, it provides a safe biological filtration solution without the risk of hydrogen sulfide production.
Key Ingredients
- Natural Porous Stone - provides surface area for beneficial bacterial colonization
How to Use
- Rinse the media to remove any dust before use.
- Place in a filter tray, canister filter, or sump where water can flow through it.
- For best nitrate removal, maintain a flow rate of less than 50 US gallons (189 liters) per hour.
- At higher flow rates, the media primarily functions as an aerobic nitrification site.
- Helps manage nitrate, nitrite, and ammonia levels in fresh or saltwater.
- Safe mineral-based composition eliminates hydrogen sulfide risks.
- Compatible with canister filters, drip trays, and sump systems.
