Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question : What is Fluval Carbon?

    Answer : No, Fluval Carbon does not contain phosphates and it will not change the pH of the aquarium water.
  • Question : How often does this have to be changed?
    Answer : I change it approx. every 2-3 months.
  • Question : Why does it say 'Use carefully when keeping live plants' in the last sentence above where the benefits are listed at the top?
    Answer : Carbon can absorb the plant food & leave plants malnourished. Your live plants should do a good job of filtering your water. It's up to you, use carbon or substitute other filter media in your filter system. There is pro & con.
  • Question : Are the particles large enough to take out of the bag? I have a small tom filter and they no longer make the cartridges, so I just need a small amount
    Answer : They come in a mesh bag, something similar to the screen in a coffee pot. I would describe them as about 1/2 the size of an okra seed.
  • Question : I have a fluval 406 canister filter any want who recommended me this product to keep the water clean?? Or any good product for a turtle tank?
    Answer : Fluvals are the best. I use it plus a over the top fluval to keep the top of the water clean. They're expensive but cannot imagine a better product for turtles. Also, for the canister I use carbon, zeolite, and also zeolite pellet.
  • Question : How many to use for a Fluval 406?
    Answer : 4 total.
  • Question : How do I use this? Just put the bag in my tank? Put it in my filter? Are filters universal?
    Answer : You first remove the plastic bag and rinse to remove the residue. These are mainly used in canister filters but also can be used in other filters as long as the water passes through it.
  • Question : I have a fluval 205. how many of the carbon bags should I put in the basket? One or two?
    Answer : I would use only one at a time.
  • Question : Is this okay for 10 gallon tank- fresh water?
    Answer : Not sure I use it for 65 gal freshwater and it works great.
  • Question : Is this fit for cascade canister 1000?
    Answer : Sorry I can't help you with that one.

Fluval A1440 Filter Accessories Editorial Review

Fluval Carbon Filter Media is an effective addition to any aquarium filter system. It helps to clear up water quickly and keep it sparkling clear. The bags can be cut and sewn closed if they are too big for the filter. Customers have found it easy to use and have had success using it in tanks ranging from 10 gallons to 75 gallons. However, there is some debate about the necessity of carbon in the filtration process and its potential to remove important minerals from the water.

Pros

  • Clears up water quickly
  • Easy to use
  • Works in a variety of tank sizes

Cons

  • Debate about the necessity of carbon
  • Potential to remove important minerals
