Renew™ is ideal for use in systems where phosphate released
from all activated carbons poses a problem. Renew™ is also less
aggressive than carbon, making it well suited for reefs and planted aquaria.
It is also beneficial for use in soft water aquaria where the pH-raising
property of many carbons is not an asset. Renew™ will remove organics
and particulates in the sub-micron range; it will also help control ammonia,
nitrates, and phosphates.

Renew™ should be used in exactly the same manner as activated carbon. Use 250 mL for each 120–160 L (30–40 gallons*). Use in a filter bag only. Although Renew™ is clean, it is advisable to rinse before use. It lasts about the same as carbon (4–6 weeks).
