More importantly, did you know you can easily maximize your filter’s efficiency with a few simple hacks?Tiny particles of uneaten food and waste can pass through coarse filter media, recirculating through and ultimately remaining in your water column. Not only does this detritus visibly cloud your aquarium’s water, it also breaks down into ammonia, a toxic compound that leads to stress, disease, and sudden death in aquatic life. The Showa Filter Pad acts as an extra layer of mechanical filtration when combined with larger-pored filter media. It ensures most waste particles are removed, ensuring a cleaner system and visibly clearer water.Disposable cartridges are expensive and aren’t able to screen out super fine particles. DIY filter media like polyester fiber fill isn’t designed for aquatic use and may be pre-treated with chemicals. They can also loosen in water, causing fibers to separate and float around your tank.The Sera Water Clarifying Filter Pad is the cheapest, most effective way to ensure crystal clear water — without shelling out for pricey equipment.Directions/SpecificationsHow To Use:The pad comes folded in half and can easily be cut down to fit inside any filter.After cutting down to size, insert the Water Clarifying Filter Pad behind/under coarse filter media, so that water passes through the coarse media first and the Water Clarifying Filter Pad second. The pad’s fine polyester fibers effectively trap micro debris as water passes through your two-stage mechanical filtration.When To Replace: Due to the pad’s fine porosity, over time it may clog as it becomes saturated with debris. Water Clarifying Pads are not reusable and should be replaced during regular filter maintenance periods. Fortunately, one pad supplies multiple cut-outs so you don’t need to buy new pads as often.
