Key item features

  • SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE! Our premium carbon has been super cleaned and is HUNGRY TO RAPIDLY TRAP CONTAMINANTS and TOXINS from your aquarium water. This is great for you because you will have a clearer, odor free aquarium while the exceptional water quality will help your aquatic friends thrive. (This activated carbon aquarium granules are small in size and work best with our FINE MESH FILTER MEDIA BAGS, Item id: )
  • BREAKTHROUGH! A huge problem with other aquarium activated carbon is that the pores are packed with ash that a simple rinse will not wash away; these pores should be clear and clean. This problem is solved with our carbon! How? After heat activation, our carbon filter media goes through a rigorous cleaning to deep clean the pores. You never have to suffer buying unclean fish filter carbon.
  • ELIMINATES ODOR AND DISCOLORATION! Our activated carbon, also known as activated charcoal, removes foul odors from freshwater and saltwater aquariums and even pond water LEAVING A CRISP CLEAN SMELL. Our aquarium charcoal has large internal surface area which rapidly adsorbs dissolved pollutants from water including yellow-brown tint, toxins, chlorine, most medications, and some heavy metals.
  • CLEANER AND LAST LONGER! When rinsing typical bulk activated charcoal everything can get covered in black dust including your hands and sink. Our premium carbon makes rinsing easy since we clean and wash out a majority of the dust and fines. What makes OUR fish CARBON LAST LONGER is our exclusive cleaning opens up large surface areas inside each granule allowing it to trap more organic compounds.
  • COMPLIMENTARY MEDIA BAG: package includes free reusable fine mesh media bag to use with our carbon or other filter media. The mesh bag will keep the carbon contained and still allow water to flow through. Our mesh media bags are perfect for pond charcoal.

About this item

Product details

Our aquarium carbon bulk weighs more than similar size containers because it is intentionally crushed to a small size to allow for greater surface area. The smaller fragments pack tighter leaving fewer gaps compared to larger aquarium carbon pieces. These smaller size aquarium carbon media require our Fine Mesh Filter Media Drawstring Bags. During shipment, our activated charcoal aquarium pieces rub against each other and may produce dust. A short rinse under tap or RO water will rinse away this dust.

Highly recommend! Quality products for good price!

I love how small the granules are and the fact that it's prewashed thoroughly! It works great in my tiny nano tank's internal filter box instead of its normal cartridges. I put this company's filter first product at the bottom where water first enters, then polishing pad from them as well, then these carbon granules and finally my bio media on top. I've pretty much jam packed my filter box with almost all of their products and I still have beautiful water flow and my tank is way more stable than if I were to just use the recommended cartridges. I just wish they made a tiny little filter bag so I don't have to use pantyhose haha, Thank you Aquatic experts :)
