Activated Carbon

Our Coral Essentials Activated Carbon is an ultra-high grade, bituminous carbon, in a handy 2L bucket.  It is a virgin activated carbon in pelletised form, typical size 4-5mm diameter and 6-7mm long.  Derived from bituminous coal, its high activity and extreme surface area (due to the activation manufacturing process) make it ideal for marine aquarium filtration applications.
 
For aquaria, carbon can be sourced from animal bones, peat, coconut shells, wood and bituminous or lignite coal. For filters, it’s generally accepted that carbon made from bituminous coal is far and away much superior. In fact, it’s the first choice for human drinking water purifiers the world over. Our Coral Essentials Activated Carbon is made purely from Bituminous coal and far superior to all other carbon.
 
Our activated carbon is excellent at removing organic chemicals from the water. The two chemicals that carbon excels at pulling from tanks are phenols and tannins. These are produced from a variety of sources, including the metabolic waste of fish and coral, the breakdown and decomposition of faeces, plants and uneaten food, and many more. It is also excellent at the removal of chlorine, chloramine and some heavy metals.

Rinse carbon thoroughly in fresh water before use to remove any residual carbon dust.
​

​What Our Clients Are Saying

"I've been using the range of Coral Essentials products for the last couple of months. I've just started into my 3rd lot of bottles. I dose Trace Elements A, B & C along with Boron and Bromide. I manually dose their excellent concentrates, Coral Power Gro and Coral Power Amino. My tank has improved dramatically after ditching a well known and expensive product that has seen my tank almost crash totally on several occasions. Coral essentials is also very reasonably priced, so much so, that I can now afford to splurge out and buy Sustainable Reefs frags that are second to none! If you want quality at an affordable price, and clearly visable results, I thoroughly recommend the products. Coral Essentials, along with Sustainable Reefs expert advise, has helped me get my tank looking just like the photos they post."
