Why Use Activated Carbon Filter Media?
Activated carbon is commonly used in aquariums to help remove odors, discoloration, and certain dissolved impurities from the water. It can be helpful when aquarium water looks tinted, smells unpleasant, or needs additional chemical filtration support.
The Sicce HyperCarbo Cartridge makes carbon use simple by keeping the media contained in a ready-to-use cartridge. This helps make replacement and routine maintenance easier compared to loose carbon media.
How to Use
Install the Sicce HyperCarbo Cartridge in a compatible Sicce filter according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure water can flow properly through the cartridge for effective chemical filtration.
Replace the cartridge every 3–4 weeks, or as needed, depending on aquarium conditions, stocking level, water clarity, and filter performance. Remove or replace carbon when using medications if directed by the medication label.

Maintenance Tips
Check chemical filtration media regularly during aquarium maintenance. Activated carbon becomes exhausted over time and should be replaced regularly for best performance.
Do not rely on carbon as a replacement for water changes, proper biological filtration, and regular aquarium maintenance. Always confirm cartridge compatibility with your Sicce filter model before purchasing.
