Juwel Carbax – XL Bioflow 8.0/Jumbo

Juwel Carbax is a fully activated, granulated charcoal that quickly binds discolouration, odours and toxins for crystal-clear aquarium water. It is sized to fit the matching Juwel Bioflow filter. This is the XL Bioflow 8.0/Jumbo version.

Key features of the Juwel Carbax

• Granulated activated charcoal
• Removes odours and discolouration
• Binds toxins
• Size: XL Bioflow 8.0/Jumbo

Fitting it in your filter

Pick the size that matches your filter: M for the Bioflow 3.0 (Compact), L for the Bioflow 6.0 (Standard) and XL for the Bioflow 8.0 (Jumbo). Juwel places Carbax in the upper filter insert, between the bioCarb and Nitrax layers, and recommends replacing it about every two months, as activated carbon gradually becomes saturated. Rinse new charcoal briefly in tank water to remove dust before fitting. It can be used in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Take it out while treating fish with medication, since the carbon would bind the treatment, and fit fresh Carbax once the course and a water change are complete.

Good to know

Replace the charcoal every four weeks or so, and remove it while treating fish with medication.
