Filter Media Cartridge Hagen AQUA CLEAR WKŁAD 200/50 ŻWIR

Hagen AQUA CLEAR WKŁAD 200/50 ŻWIR is a replacement filter media cartridge designed for Aqua Clear filtration systems. The cartridge fits filters labeled 200/50 and contains gravel-like coarse media intended to support mechanical trapping of debris and surface area for biological filtration. It is intended for regular replacement as part of routine maintenance to help maintain water clarity and aquarium hygiene.

Advantages

The cartridge combines coarse granular media that captures larger particles while providing a rough surface favorable for beneficial bacteria colonization. Its shape and dimensions correspond to Aqua Clear 200/50 filter housings for straightforward installation and stable positioning during operation. The media supports both mechanical removal of detritus and contribution to biological filtration when used in a multi-stage filter setup.
