Poly Filter has the capabilities for removing ammonia, it also removes heavy metals, harmful organics, all forms of phosphate and is without equal in the removal of medications after treatment. 40 Parts per Billion filtration! Removes all types of impurities including phosphates Will not soften water of remove trace elements in solution Made from a patented material Used in both fresh and salt water Poly-filter also acts as a revolutionary mechanical filter. Rather than just trapping waste, particles of debris actually cling to the Poly-Filter fibres, allowing water to flow through freely with no clogging, and ensuring no waste is released. Poly Filter Pad 12 x 12in The Poly Filter is for filtering and purifying both fresh and salt water aquariums. It is a formulation of a special patented material bonded to a synthetic matrix. By means of a unique proprietary process, the Poly Filter is made impervious to salt and is also organic loving to certain materials. It can absorb and adsorb contaminants and other toxic materials found in nature or added to fresh and salt water with or without fish and invertebrates. Medication added to fresh and salt water aquariums for treatment of diseased fish will automatically be removed by the poly filter after serving their intended purpose before the medication can produce a toxic effect on the fish. The Poly Filter is non-toxic and harmless to biological filtration because it allows a sufficient amount of ammonia to reach the biological filter in order to sustain the bacteria culture. It provides a supplemental means for removal of ammonia when the biological filter is unable to break down the excess ammonia and its concentration increases rapidly. Then the Poly Filter adsorbs the excess ammonia while the biological filter readjusts to higher ammonia input levels. Changes color when exhausted.
