Matala Grey Filter Media 24" x 39", Super High Density (MPN FSM460)

Matala is an advanced filter media designed specifically for those who are passionate about maintaining a healthy pond. Its practical and versatile qualities are evident with just one glance. The open, highly aerobic 3-dimensional structure of Matala promotes healthy water conditions and allows for easy cleaning in most non-pressurized filter designs. This filter media is both simple to use and highly effective. One of the greatest advantages of Matala is its ability to cater to unique filtration requirements. With its various densities, Matala can be used in sequence or separately to achieve the desired level of filtration. Unlike any other media on the market, Matala offers step-wise filtration, effectively separating large particles to small ones while maintaining a high level of water flow without channeling. Additionally, Matala's buoyancy prevents it from sinking to the bottom of the filter, and when stacked horizontally, the sheets hold each other down, eliminating the need for additional support. A half sheet of Matala has specific dimensions, weighing between 4 to 5 pounds depending on density. It covers an area of 6.5 square feet, and 8 square feet of Matala is equivalent to 1 cubic foot of media. This half sheet also has a volume of 0.8 cubic feet or 6 gallons. Made of EVA material, Matala is both semi-rigid and self-supporting, ensuring its durability. Furthermore, with a specific gravity of 0.95, Matala is slightly buoyant and will not cause any harm to the environment.
