About Hagen Fluval G6 Nitrate Adsorbing Cartridge
The Fluval G6 Nitrate adsorbing cartridge is for use with the Fluval G6 advanced filter and will remove up to 24000 mg of nitrate ion in fresh water aquariums. Nitrate concentration should not exceed 20mg/L in freshwater aquariums; Planted aquariums require approximately 5mg/L of nitrate as a source of nitrogen for healthy plant growth.
In a 600L freshwater aquarium with a 30mg/L nitrate concentration, the use of G6 Nitrogen cartridge will quickly remove all excess of nitrate in a couple of days. If left in the filter it will then maintain a low nitrate level for a period of time that is strictly dependent on the type of aquarium (quantity and type of fish, type of fish food and so on). Nitrate is irreversibly trapped and bound and will not leach back into the water.
The continuous use of the G6 Nitrate cartridge in aquariums with persistent nitrate problems is an effective solution against nitrate accumulation. If used as a quick solution to reduce elevated nitrate concentrations the cartridge can be removed once levels have normalized and then stored until required.
