FAQs
How long does SuperFish Zeolite last?
The lifespan of the Zeolite depends on the ammonia load in your aquarium or pond, but it typically needs replacing every 4-6 weeks.
Can I use SuperFish Zeolite with other filter media?
Yes, Zeolite is designed to be used in conjunction with other filter media, such as mechanical and biological filtration components.
Where should I place the Zeolite in my filter?
Place the Zeolite where water flows through it, such as in a filter basket, media bag, or directly in the filter chamber.
Does Zeolite remove beneficial bacteria?

Can I reuse the Zeolite?
While it can be rinsed, Zeolite loses its effectiveness over time and should be replaced.

Troubleshooting
Cloudy water after adding Zeolite.
Rinse the Zeolite more thoroughly before adding it to the filter.
Ammonia levels still high after adding Zeolite.
Check your filter's flow rate and ensure the Zeolite is in an area with good water circulation. Replace the Zeolite if it has been in use for an extended period.
Algae growth persists.
Zeolite helps, but doesn't eliminate algae. Ensure proper lighting, reduce excess nutrients, and perform regular water changes.
