ARM™ -
A complete reactor media containing not only calcium and carbonate, but
essential trace elements as well. In fact, A.R.M.™ has nearly 50 times
the strontium of other brands (7390 ppm). A.R.M.™ is processed for
immediate use, no rinsing required, and has double the surface area of regular
aragonite. Precision grading (2-3mm) allows for maximum carbon dioxide
penetration, and the exclusion of gastropod shells insures the lowest phosphate
(less than 1/10 of 1 ppm) content. This grading also carries in the highest
concentration of Halimeda incrassata, an aragonite so pure it has been used as a
laboratory standard. A.R.M.™ has the highest solubility of any reactor
media available (metastable at 8.2) so typical CO2 consumption is much lower.

5 This is all I have ever used in my GEO

I have not tried other brands or coarse media, but this size and brand has worked very well in my GEO for the past 3 years. It needs to be changed every 6 months(detritus biuld up).

1 Terrible!

This stuff is awful if you have a powerful upflow reactor. It will clog the reactor, unless you have a weak or downflow reactor. The coarse media is much much better.
