Seachem Matrix is a great natural medium for colonizing both nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria so important for good water chemistry and the health of one's aquarium inhabitants. I noticed many users have complained about receiving an adulterated product, and frankly I thought I had received one as well. I called Seachem and got the scoop. Here's what I found out: Matrix is a natural, mined product. The mineral has natural variations in size and color. When mined, black Obsidian is sometimes included in the take. The Obsidian is removed by hand before packaging, but some slips into the container from time to time. The packaging does not have a tamper-proof seal beneath the lid. When you open the jar, you immediately see the product. Matrix is sold by volume and not by weight. A minimum weight is listed in the literature (e.g.: 1 liter of Matrix = 400 gram net weight) but this is required by law, and has nothing to do with the actual weight of the product, which can vary greatly due to Matrix absorbing moisture from the air, for example. The 1 liter of Matrix I received weighted 967 grams out of the jar. When you receive Matrix, expect it to vary in color, size, and that there may be a few dark or black rocks in the jar. Now for the actual use. Matrix provides a tremendous amount of surface area. The outer surfaces and crevices provide a very hospitable environment for the aerobic (oxygen consuming) nitrifying bacteria that make up the 'bio filter' so critical to breaking down Ammonia to Nitrite, and Nitrite to Nitrate. It's benefit doesn't stop there. At the end of the aerobic portion of the Nitrogen Cycle, nitrate is left to build up in the water column, and is one of the major pollutants that dictate the frequency and quantity of water changes. Nitrate can be reduced to Nitrogen gas - but this is an anaerobic (oxygen deprived) process requiring another type of bacteria. Nitrate laden water seeps into the core of Matrix after having been stripped of oxygen by the aerobic bacteria on the medium's surface. This oxygen-poor environment is perfect for colonizing anaerobic bacteria that consume Nitrate and release inert Nitrogen gas. This final step in the Nitrogen Cycle helps control the buildup of Nitrate in the aquarium, contributing markedly to the long term health of it's inhabitants.

Sembrano semplici pietre ma in realtà sono molto di più. Osservando al microscopio le insenature che presenta Seachem Matrix si capisce presto il perché siano i migliori materiali biologici per acquari. Offrono una grandissima superficie di insediamento dei batteri "buoni" indispensabili per un buon equilibrio dell'acquario. Il materiale è molto poroso e molto leggero. Nessun'altro materiale biologico per acquari da me testato ha le performance di Seachem Matrix. La porosità è elevatissima, ciò permette di massimizzare la superficie da colonizzare da parte dei batteri "buoni" presenti nel filtro. Più superficie=più batteri buoni. Più batteri buoni=meno alghe. Tali batteri legandosi al materiale biologico decompongono sostanza organica che inevitabilmente si forma in vasca. La materia organica è prodotta da pesci e piante e a livelli elevati, può diventare molto pericolosa per l'equilibrio chimico e biologico della vasca stessa provocando esplosioni indesiderate di alghe. Per il mio acquario da 100LT ho utilizzato 1LT di Matrix da inserire nel filtro esterno e ho avviato. Successivamente ho inserito nell'acqua della vasca circa 15ml di batteri liquidi che aiutano il processo di colonizzazione nel filtro. Possono essere inseriti anche in filtri interni. Dopo circa un mese di utilizzo alghe sparite! Provare per credere. E' un materiale eterno che può durare anni ed anni e non va mai sostituito; basta avere l'accortezza di sciacquare una volta ogni 40-60gg tale materiale nell'acqua di cambio della vasca (non in acqua di rubinetto pura in quanto contiene cloro che uccide i batteri presenti). Ogni filtro per acquari di acqua dolce deve essere equipaggiato con materiale biologico di ottima qualità come questo. Consiglio l'acquisto. P.S. Se ti sono stato utile fammelo sapere :)

L'eau est parfaitement limpide, et la qualité de l'eau s'est grandement améliorée. J'ai remarqué une réduction significative des nitrates et des phosphates, ce qui a vraiment aidé à stabiliser l'écosystème de mon aquarium. Le produit est facile à utiliser et dure longtemps, ce qui en fait un excellent rapport qualité-prix. Que ce soit pour les aquariums d'eau douce ou marine, je recommande vivement ce produit à tous les aquariophiles soucieux de maintenir une eau de haute qualité. Un must-have pour tout aquarium !
