Matala Black

The Black Matala® can be used as a support grate for
other layers of media due to it’s very sturdy and open
design. In a settling chamber the Black will slow down
and trap very large particles and hair algae.

Matala is a progressive filter media that is self
supporting and multifunctional. Used for prefiltering,
mechanical filter media, biological filtration, spawning
mat, plant protection, and as a support for other filter
medias. Uniquely versatile, Matala is easy to work with
and can fit most all filtration needs.

The various densities can be used in sequence or
separately for unique filtration requirements. This is
one of the greatest characteristics which Matala has to
offer. No other media on the market can perform this
step-wise filtration. Matala effectively separates large
particles to small and still maintains a very aerobic and
free flow of water without channeling.

Full sheets measure 48" x 39" x 1-7/8"
Half sheets measure 24" x 39" x 1-7/8" and are

UPS/FedEx shippable




Matala Green
The Green Matala can follow thereby trapping a
medium size particle. Both Green and Black clean out
very easily by simply shaking the pieces out before
draining the sump. When you use the Black or Green
Matala® for solids filtering you may use the garden
hose to spray clean them. The dirt falls off very easily.

A good biofilter needs a lot of surface area with open
spaces between for good aerated water flow. A high
surface area is useless if the passageways are so small
that water flow cannot penetrate.

Matala Blue
The Blue Matala® will filter out a much smaller particle
and yet still maintain good flow distribution. In larger
systems all four types can be used in sequence to
essentially remove all solids.

Matala Gray
The Gray Matala® will filter out a much smaller particle
and yet still maintain good flow distribution. In larger
systems all four types can be used in sequence to
essentially remove all solids.

Matala works perfectly with upflow filter designs. The
ideal configuration would be the Matala® stood
vertically rather than flat. This allows for easier
cleaning. All you do is grab an individual piece and
shake it up and down to clean it. If your filter chamber is
packed to tight, take out one piece first.

Laid flat you will have to remove all the pieces to get to
the bottom dirty piece. Stagger your vertical pieces with
different Matala® densities to achieve better solids
removal or better biological filtering depending on the
tank capacity. A Green piece next to a Gray piece for
example will give good flow around the Gray one and
trap solids in the Green one.
