They work well in freshwater and saltwater aquariums and even ponds. Whatever filter you use, the carbon filter pad will work for you! Buying in bulk WILL SAVE YOU EVEN MORE MONEY over purchasing ready-made pre-cut filter material. - ELIMINATES ODOR AND DISCOLORATION! - Activated carbon, also known as activated charcoal, removes foul odors from aquarium and pond water LEAVING A CRISP CLEAN SMELL. The thin carbon coating creates a large surface area for the carbon to trap and remove water discoloration, residual medications, toxins, pollutants and more to keep your water crystal clear. - INCREASE WATER QUALITY – Changing the aquarium carbon filter pad regularly WILL INCREASE WATER QUALITY by removing solid organic compounds before they break down. - TOUGH AND DURABLE - The strong fibers of our charcoal fish tank filters can take a lot of punishment, even standing up to outdoor pond use.

Best, Lexi M @ Aquatic Experts **Q: when will these pads be available under the subscribe and save program ?** A: Yes **Q: Can you wash and reuse?** A: Yes, you can rinse it and reuse it but the carbon will eventually get used up depending on the organic bioload of the aquarium. **Q: Which pad do I put on top in the filter.
