Eheim Karbon is particularly suitable for water purification during the set-up phase of the aquarium. In particular, chlorine from mains water and other chemical substances, which can get into the aquarium during installation, are safely taken up. Eheim Karbon should be used for a short time (4 weeks) in the layering set-up after the mechanical (e.g. Eheim Mech or Mech Pro) and the biological filter media (e.g. Eheim Substrat Pro) in the net bag provided.

Note

Only use absorptive filter media for a few weeks, as the harmful substances are only attached and can loosen after some time and be reintroduced into the water. At the very least, they should be changed regularly. Normally, absorptive filtration is only necessary during aquarium setup or after treatments with medications.
