Description

Torf Pellets 450g from Eheim

Chemically acting filter peat lowers the pH-value and reduces the water hardness.

Eheim Torf Pellets consist of specially treated, acidic peat. It is rich in valuable substances such as humic acids and trace elements (therefore do not wash it).
Peat pellets lower (acidify) the pH-value of the water and so reduce the water hardness. The pellets should, however, only be used if the pH-value necessary for the particular type of fish is exceeded.

Eheim Torf peat expands in the water. You will need to soak it (not wash it) in some aquarium water for a little while before use.
Peat filtration is ideal for clear tropical water aquariums and black water aquariums. Not suitable for salt water or marine aquariums.

Inside the filter, Eheim Torf should only be used for 3-6 weeks. It needs to be placed in the layering set up of the filter after the mechanical and the biological filter media.
For convenience, it is best placed in the filter inside a net bag which is provided with this media.
