Activated Carbon Sticks

When it comes to freshwater aquarium filtration, there are many options to choose from. One of the most popular filtration methods involves carbon filter media. Using carbon in a freshwater aquarium is a controversial subject. Some people believe it is a waste of time and never use carbon except for special occasions. Others use a great deal of carbon and swear by its ability to polish the water and remove odors. This article will present both sides of the story so you will be well informed when you decide whether or not to use carbon in your setup.

Activated Carbon Sticks is used as a chemical filtration media. It helps to remove many organic and inorganic materials dissolved in tank water — it keeps the aquarium water clear, and removes odors. Activated carbon works by using absorption and adsorption. Absorption is the process by which pollutants are trapped in the pores of the carbon (you can think of this process as a molecular-sized mechanical filter). Adsorption occurs because the carbon has a large surface area (with all the pores) and, therefore, many chemical bonding sites. Adsorption is the process by which pollutants are chemically bonded to these sites and trapped by the carbon.

Activated Carbon Sticks is the most popular type of filter media for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. This simple and inexpensive method of chemical filtration helps keep tanks clear and odorless, and can even remove toxins and medications from the water column.
