IceCap CO₂ Absorbent Media – Color Changing – 2.2 lbs

Maintain Higher pH with Reliable CO₂ Removal

The IceCap Color Changing CO₂ Absorbent Media is designed to remove carbon dioxide from the air entering your protein skimmer, helping reef aquariums maintain a higher and more stable pH. This specialized media works perfectly with CO₂ scrubbers such as the Reef Octopus Universal CO₂ Scrubber.

By reducing excess CO₂ entering the aquarium, this media helps improve coral calcification, growth, and overall reef stability.

Key Benefits

• Removes CO₂ from skimmer air intake
• Helps naturally increase aquarium pH
• Promotes coral growth and skeletal development
• Color-changing indicator shows when media is exhausted
• Compatible with most CO₂ scrubbers
• Easy to use and replace
• Ideal for SPS and mixed reef aquariums

How It Works

As air passes through the media, CO₂ is chemically absorbed before entering the protein skimmer. This reduces carbonic acid formation in the aquarium and helps stabilize pH levels.

The media changes color as it becomes exhausted, making maintenance simple and predictable.

Directions for Use

• Fill your CO₂ scrubber chamber with the media
• Do not pack too tightly to allow proper airflow
• Replace when the color change indicates exhaustion
• Store unused media in an airtight container

For best performance, ensure all airline connections are airtight to prevent untreated air from entering the skimmer.

Recommended For

• Reef aquariums with low pH
• Homes with elevated indoor CO₂
• SPS reef systems requiring stable pH
• Use with Reef Octopus CO₂ Scrubber and similar reactors

Francois Neo – AquariumPartner Insight

Many reef keepers focus on additives when low pH is often caused by indoor CO₂. Using a CO₂ scrubber combined with quality absorbent media is one of the most stable and predictable ways to improve pH naturally.
