FAQ
Can Seapora Activated Carbon be used in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums?
Seapora Activated Carbon is suitable for use in freshwater aquariums. Its effectiveness in removing organic pollutants and odors makes it appropriate for freshwater systems. For saltwater applications, it is recommended to consult with a specialist, as the impact on essential elements may vary.
How often should the activated carbon be replaced?
Activated carbon typically needs to be replaced every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on water conditions and usage. After this period, its absorption capacity diminishes and it may no longer effectively remove pollutants.
Does activated carbon affect plant or invertebrate growth?
Yes, activated carbon may remove essential trace elements required for plant and invertebrate growth. Regular monitoring of water parameters is advised to ensure the health of aquatic life.
