Special activated carbon pellets for aquariums and animal care
For the rapid removal of medication residues, yellow and toxic substances
For Carbodrakon uses a specially produced activated carbon quality that has been optimised for use in the treatment of water in aquariums and in the seawater sector. The pellet shape (Ø 3 mm) ensures easy handling and good flow. The combination of a highly developed surface of high purity with an almost neutral pH fulfils all the requirements necessary for safe use in the desired scenarios, such as cold and warm water aquariums in fresh and sea water as well as for commercial fish and coral farming. The high purity of this material also ensures negligible leaching of phosphate (often the cause of excessive algae growth).

* The manufacturing process used to produce the high degree of purity of this activated carbon results in a slightly acidic pH value of this product as supplied. We strongly recommend that you rinse the activated carbon with approx. five times the volume of water before use. This will balance the pH of the carbon and the water.
