Seachem De*nitrate 100mL — High-porosity natural mineral filter media for biological denitrification of aquariums
Seachem De*nitrate 100mL (SKU: 724953-135) is a high-porosity natural mineral filter media designed to remove nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, and organic contaminants through biological denitrification. Its pore structure supports anaerobic denitrifying bacteria at low flow rates (<200 L/h or 50 GPH).
Seachem de*nitrate is a porous filtration media that efficiently removes nitrates, nitrites, and ammonia by supporting beneficial bacterial growth within its structure. It works best in low-flow environments and treats up to 200 litres per 500 mL, helping maintain healthy water quality in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
Usage & Application
When to Use
-
Nitrate Control in Small Tanks: Ideal for controlling nitrate accumulation in nano aquariums, small canister filters, or internal filter chambers.
-
Biological Filtration Upgrade: Enhances standard biological media by target-removing nitrate without chemical resins.
Placement & Flow Guide
-
Place in a media bag within a filter chamber with controlled low water flow (under 200 L/hr or 50 GPH).
-
Rinse under tap water prior to first installation to remove mineral transport dust.
-
If flow exceeds 200 L/hr, use Seachem Matrix instead for general bio-filtration.
Product Specifications & Highlights
Key Features
-
Anaerobic Denitrification Geometry: Internal pore structures host anaerobic bacteria to break down nitrate (NO₃⁻) into harmless nitrogen gas.
-
Dual-Action Filtration: Functions as an aerobic bio-media at higher flow and denitrifying media at low flow.
-
Non-Exhausting Media: Permanent physical bio-structure does not require replacement unless clogged by detritus.
-
Chemical-Free: Natural porous stone—free from chemical resins or sulphur additives.
