Best Practice
The best situation for Matala Filter Media is if it is standing up in a vertical position rather than laying flat. It allows for better flow, and is a bit easier to clean. Try to stagger the Filter media vertically with varied filter media densities to achieve the most optimal removal of particles. Try using a Green next to a Grey which will give good flow around the Grey media yet trap solids in the Green one.
