One look at Matala® will convince you of its practical and versatile qualities. The open, highly aerobic 3 dimensional structure promotes healthy water conditions and ease of cleaning in most non-pressurized filter designs. Matala® is a filter media that is simple and that works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe various densities can be used in sequence or separately for unique filtration requirements.
