Polyfilter is a unique, specially patented filter medium is for chemically filtering and purifying both fresh and saltwater aquaria. PolyFilter will remove excess nutrients, toxins and unwanted pollutants. Also ideal for copper removal from marine tanks.
Can be cut to size. will change colour as it becomes exhausted.

Poly-Filter will remove all of these from the aquarium.
Proteins and Amino Acids
Nitrite, Nitrate and Ammonia
Phosphates (the principal cause of algae in the aquarium)
Toxic Metals
As these pollutants are removed the colour of the poly-filter changes, and when it has turned black that is an indication that it is saturated and needs to be replaced.
Unlike other substances sometimes used as an aid to filtration, once saturated, poly-filter will NOT allow hazardous substances to leach back into the aquarium.
Whilst removing all of the listed undesirable products, Poly Filter does NOT remove desirable trace elements and will not have a softening effect on the water, and so is equally useable in both marine and freshwater aquariums.
Poly-filter can be used within any aquarium filter chamber as it can be cut to the size and shape required to fit.
It can also be used in very small environments such as nano aquaria, by simply cutting a small piece and placing it anywhere in the water where it can be left to soak up any undesirable chemicals, until it has turned black and needs to be replaced.
