AF Air Scrubber media
AF CO2 Scrubber Medium helps preventing harmful fluctuations in parameters caused by low water pH. The medium is a white, dry pellet.
It tightly fills the filter chamber, while allowing air flow. As a result, it perfectly absorbs carbon dioxide. Used and replaced regularly, it guarantees stable pH in the aquarium.
According to our tests, the Aquaforest CO2 Scrubber Medium can raise the pH ~0.2 – 0.4 degrees and its stabilization in the range of 8.0 – 8.4.
Usage
- We recommend using the Aquaforest CO2 Scrubber Medium together with the Aquaforest CO2 Scrubber filter.
- This configuration ensures the most effective removal of CO2 from the air drawn in by the skimmer.
- The color changing medium wears out gradually, easily indicating when to replace the cartridge.
- We recommend replacing it before the color changes completely.
- The cartridge is meant for single use, cannot be regenerated and reused.
- Its saturation with carbon dioxide can be recognized by the pellet color.
- When the cartridge turns purple it means that it absorbed carbon dioxide.
- Only original CO2 filter cartridges ensure their uninterrupted operation and the highest efficiency.
- In order to obtain optimal and long-lasting filtration, it is recommended to use AF CO2 Scrubber Medium together with a dedicated AF CO2 Scrubber filter.
