## Description

ClearMax is a science-grade resin designed to adsorb phosphate, nitrite and nitrate. Removal of these compounds result in crystal clear water and reduces the maintenance of your aquarium. ClearMax is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. (ClearMax does not remove nitrates from saltwater applications.) To use ClearMax in your aquarium, rinse the nylon bag thoroughly before use to remove ¬fine dust due to handling and place directly into the media basket. Monthly change is recommended, as exchange resins will no longer be active. Do not replace all ¬filter media simultaneously. Stagger media replacement to ensure constant biological activity.Fluval first broke onto the aquatic scene in 1975 by introducing the world’s first 3-stage filter with synchronous motor technology – a landmark breakthrough that is still applied in the industry today. Since then, Fluval has built a legacy around this pioneering spirit, relentlessly adapting in a changing world to launch innovative aquarium products that remain at the forefront of technology, and which set the bar in quality, style and functionality. Above and beyond its manufacturing role, Fluval prides itself on its charitable and educational efforts that give back to the fishkeeping community, whether it means helping to fund the protection of wild coral reefs or jumping on a plane to document endangered fish species halfway around the world. Fluval’s mission is not just about building products that mimic the natural world, but inspiring aquarists of all skill levels to enjoy and respect the hobby for generations to come.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it be put in the Fluval C3 Filter?**
A: Yes, you can put it in the c-3 filter, but what I do is pretreat my water in a separate tank with Clearmax to remove the phosphates from our well water. For this I use a 5 gallon tank and a topfin filter, just put the bag of Clearmax where the charcoal filter goes.  I use a little salt, and stress coat in the actual tank. I have never had a bad reaction, and my (adult) kids laugh about my tank full of invisible (not rare, just hard to find) fish.  I am not aware of any phosphate remover that does not have an iron oxide component.If you issue is not your water source you might look to the food.  I found that certain foods spiked the phosphorus levels, oddly enough, in my tank API foods that promised not to cause algae were the biggest problem.

**Q: Fluval, the back of the box states it treats 300L. Is this for each 100g pack or does it mean a total of 3 packs?**
A: I am pretty sure it's for each 100g pack.  There is no way that any filter for that size tank could hold 3, especially since the bag needs to be weighted down or it will float.

**Q: Is one pack of fluval clearmax enough for a 55 gallon tank?**
A: kinda goes by how hi the test are and number of packets use. older tank 55 gallon i would probably use the 3 packs and test 1st day and 35th day

**Q: Would this remove the beneficial tannins from Indian Almond Leaves?**
A: so that is a good question. I would think yes. But it really is for older setups
