Our take on the Black Coarse Filter Media

This is a 1.25-inch thick, 12-inch by 56-inch roll of black coarse filter pad for aquariums, ponds and water gardens, made in the USA. The coarse density traps larger debris such as uneaten food and waste before finer media does the polishing, and the open structure gives nitrifying bacteria a large surface to colonize. It is reusable: rinse it and put it back. Compared with bonded or fine filter pads, it clogs more slowly and lasts longer between cleanings, but it will not clear fine haze on its own, so most setups pair it with a finer pad or floss. It suits keepers who cut their own media and want a durable first stage of mechanical filtration.

Questions and answers

Will this clear cloudy water on its own?
No. The coarse grade catches larger debris and waste. Fine haze needs a finer pad or filter floss after it.
Can I reuse it?
Yes. Rinse it and reuse it multiple times. Rinse in tank or pond water rather than tap water to keep the bacteria alive.
How do I cut it to fit?
Cut it with scissors to the size of your filter compartment. The 1.25-inch thickness suits most sump and canister trays.
Does it work in ponds as well as aquariums?
Yes. It is sold for aquariums, ponds and water gardens, and the roll can be cut for larger filter boxes.
Does it provide biological filtration?
Yes. The open structure gives nitrifying bacteria a large surface area, so it works as both mechanical and biological media.
