FX5 and Seachem Pond Matrix

[The_Bean_Man]

Hi All,

Just wondering if someone could tell me how much pond matrix I would need to fill one basket in the Fluval FX5 adequately?

Kind Regards,

I used 2L of Seachem Matrix in mine. I fit just under 2L in one basket.

Is that Pond Matrix or the standard sized Matrix?

I'm actually running both. I could fit around 2L of each in each basket. Maybe a little less than 2L with the Pond Matrix as it sticks up further.
