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.
This product is sold by volume. Cited weight is minimal

 DIRECTIONS:
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). |
