Fluval C Series Zeo - Carb is specially crafted for use with Fluval C Series Power Filters. It's a top - notch blend of Fluval Carbon and Ammonia Remover. This powerful combination effectively gets rid of water impurities, bad odors, and discoloration. At the same time, it removes toxic ammonia from the water. As a chemical filter media, it offers several benefits. First, it can free up space inside the filter, allowing you to add extra media if you wish. Second, it plays a key role in creating a clean and healthy water environment for your aquarium. It comes in a convenient 3 - pack format. Available sizes include C3 Zeo - Carb (3 x 130 g or 4.58 oz) and C4 Zeo - Carb (3 x 230 g or 8.10 oz). The Fluval C Power Filters use various filter media for extensive 5 - stage filtration. There are two mechanical stages: the highly porous foam pad with a large surface area can mechanically filter large particles and debris from the aquarium easily, and it can be slid out for quick cleaning; the Poly/Foam Pad performs the first and second mechanical filtration stages, with the porous foam side capturing large particles and the dense polyester side trapping finer debris. The activated carbon has excellent adsorption qualities to eliminate odors, discoloration, and impurities. In the final two biological stages, a Bio - Screen pad offers a large surface area for friendly bacteria to grow and blocks debris from entering a trickle chamber filled with super - charged C - Nodes for fast and efficient nitrification. By combining two products into one, Fluval Zeo - Carb makes more room inside the filter for other media types, making it a great choice for aquarium enthusiasts.
Using Fluval C Series Zeo - Carb is easy. First, make sure your Fluval C Series Power Filter is turned off. Open the filter and place the Zeo - Carb media inside according to the size recommendation for your filter model. Once placed, close the filter and turn it on. Remember to follow the recommended replacement schedule. Usually, it's a good idea to replace the Zeo - Carb every few weeks to keep the water clean and healthy. When handling the media, avoid getting it wet before use as this can reduce its effectiveness. For maintenance, you can regularly check the filter to ensure the media is in good condition and not clogged. If you notice a significant decrease in water flow or the water quality starts to deteriorate, it might be time to replace the Zeo - Carb. Also, if you plan to add other types of media, use the extra space freed up by the Zeo - Carb wisely based on your aquarium's specific needs.
