Removes phosphate, silicate, organics, metals, acids, and more
50/50 blend of MatrixCarbon and PhosGuard
More convenient than two separate bags of media

Seachem SeaGel is a 2-in-1 filter media (a 50/50 MatrixCarbon and PhosGuard mixture) that removes phosphate, silicate, organics, metals, acids. It is a filtration media designed for reef and marine tanks.

Advantages
SeaGel is a blend of MatrixCarbon and PhosGuard and is optimised specifically for aquaria where organic color body and acid removal is required without the introduction of phosphate.

MatrixCarbon is an ultra-capacity carbon for the removal of organic and colour impurities. PhosGuard is a powerful remover of phosphate, silicate, toxic metals, and acids. Both components are bead shaped for optimum water flow characteristics and penetration. The components enhance each other and are ideal for reef and marine use. SeaGel may also be used in freshwater that is not phosphate buffered.

Although MatrixCarbon has the lowest detectable leachable phosphate content of all major carbon brands tested, some phosphate is still released. Adding PhosGuard to the mix compensates for this. Both components are bead shaped for optimum water flow characteristics and penetration. The components enhance each other and are ideal for reef and marine use.

Directions
Use 250 mL for each 150-225 L (40-60 US gallons). For best results, SeaGel should be placed so as to maximise the flow of water through it. Use in a filter bag such as Seachem’s Zip Bag. Rinse in freshwater before use. Use caution, since product will fizz and heat on initial wetting. SeaGel will function 3-4 months.

FAQ
On the SeaGel label it says “removes toxic metals.” Does this include copper?

A: Yes, SeaGel will remove copper.

Will SeaGel remove trace elements?

A: Carbon (like our MatrixCarbon which makes up 50% of SeaGel) will not have a major impact on trace minerals. However, it is likely to remove only an insignificant amount i.e. SeaGel will not remove trace elements to any significant degree.
