Poly Filter Pad

Description

Poly Filter Pad is a highly effective chemical filtration medium designed to remove a wide range of harmful contaminants from aquarium water while preserving essential trace elements. It selectively absorbs ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, heavy metals, phosphates, copper, and organic waste, helping maintain stable, healthy water conditions.

Poly Filter works in both freshwater and marine aquariums and provides visual feedback through colour change, indicating the type of contaminants being removed and when the pad needs replacement. Each pad offers long-lasting performance of up to 3 months, depending on bioload and water conditions.
