What tray should this go in?** A: It is best to place it on top of the white filter pad media (highest/top tray). **Q: How often should it be replaced?** A: General rule of thumb when you do your water change OR if you’re monitoring the ammonia lvl and see it start to rise **Q: Okay after i wash it should I take it out of the mesh pouch or just throw it in filter?** A: If it fits your filter then leave it in the pouch; if not, then you could open and put a smaller quantity in another filter media bag that fits your filter. **Q: Can you mix this with the hydor activated carbon for aquatic turtles** A: Yes, however just as with carbon, you must change it out every 45 days or so or it can leech toxins back into the water. Having proper biological filtration will always trump temporary polishers such as carbon and such. Good luck and happy days with your aquatic friends! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent filter media with other uses *by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2019* Usually this media is used in canister filters for its mechanical/biological filtration. This ceramic media is dimpled and slightly rough to further increase the surface area. I did a little experiment and added it to the bottom of an inorganic orchid Leica and volcanic stone mixture. I like the fact that the increased surface area acts to hold moisture for roots. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Worked great!
