{"product_id":"matrix-250ml","title":"Matrix 250ml","description":"Matrix™ is a high porosity biomedia that provides efficient biofiltration for the removal of nitrogenous waste. Matrix™ is a porous inorganic solid about 10 mm in diameter. Each liter of Matrix™ provides as much surface (\u0026gt;~700 m2) as 170 liters of plastic balls! Plastic bio-materials provide only external surface area, whereas Matrix™ provides both external and internal macroporous surface area. These macropores are ideally sized for the support of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria. This allows Matrix™, unlike other forms of biomedia, to remove nitrate along with ammonia and nitrite, simultaneously and in the same filter.\u003cbr\u003eMatrix™ is completely inert and will not breakdown. It need not be replaced. Since the majority of the bacteria are internal, Matrix™ may be rinsed when needed without damaging the filter. Matrix™ is compatible with all types of wet or wet-dry filters.","brand":"BROOKLANDS-SF","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":57475833725231,"sku":"PR741591","price":23.7,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/9159\/9663\/files\/LE39_0_T2JZ0R2NSEXM.jpg?v=1777527668","url":"https:\/\/smartfoxstore.com.au\/products\/matrix-250ml","provider":"SmartfoxAU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
