A good biofilter needs a lot of surface area with open spaces between for good aerated water flow. A high surface area is useless if the passageways are so small that water flow cannot penetrate.

The Green Matala can follow thereby trapping a medium size particle. Both Green and Black clean out very easily by simply shaking the pieces out before draining the sump.

When you use the Black or Green Matala® for solids filtering you may use the garden hose to spray clean them. The dirt falls off very easily.

MATALA® FILTER MEDIA

Matala® is a cutting edge filter media that was specifically designed for use in aquaculture and Koi keeping. Matala® works great both as a mechanical media and as a biological media. As a mechanical filtration it collects debris more efficiently and prevents clogging. Because its fibers are solid they resist sludge build up and are a snap to clean. As a biological media it provides a tremendous amount of surface area. It can be easily cut with a sharp knife and custom shaped to fit in almost any filter.

• Advanced filter technology for increasing the efficiency of skimmers and other mechanical filters
• Maximizes the efficiency of biological filters by creating more surface area for beneficial bacteria
• Use multiple mats in your skimmer for more thorough filtration and less frequent filter maintenance
