Description

Fluval Nitrite Remover Pads for 306/307 & 406/407 canister filters – Pack of 6

Fluval Nitrite Pads 6-Pack (SKU: FA149) are specialised chemical filter inserts tailored for Fluval 306, 307, 406, and 407 canister filters. Infused with nitrite-absorbent resins, these high-capacity pads remove toxic nitrite (NO₂⁻) ions from aquarium water. Nitrite resin-infused pads perform double duty as both an effective mechanical and chemical media. They provide a reliable barrier against parameter surges, making them essential for maintaining fish health in high-volume aquariums during initial setup or filter maintenance.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Nitrite Spike Mitigation: Use when water testing detects elevated nitrite levels during new tank cycling.

• Bio-Load Adjustments: Apply when adding new fish or after feeding heavy frozen/fresh foods.

• Post-Medication Care: Insert following antibiotic treatments to protect fish while biological filtration recovers.

2. Insert one Nitrite Pad into the designated media basket.
