Red Sea Media Bag 10 x 5.5 in — 2 Pack Drawstring Nylon Filter Media Bags

The Red Sea Media Bag is the drawstring nylon media bag supplied with the brand's REEF SPEC Carbon — now available on its own, as a 2 pack. Its mesh size is calibrated to suit every aquarium filter media: activated carbon, phosphate-removing resins, absorption media and the rest.

One bag, all your media

The mesh keeps the granules inside while letting water flow through the media, and the drawstring keeps everything closed during handling. The bags are reusable: dump the spent media, refill, and go again. Dimensions per the official Red Sea list: 25 x 14 cm (10 x 5.5 in) — a size that slips into a sump chamber, a canister filter or the rear chamber of an all-in-one.
