The Micron ION-X is a mesh bag for loose filter media, intended for aquarists who run fine loose media in their filtration and want to keep it contained inside the filter. Its 200-micron mesh is designed to hold very small granules, so the media stays in place while water flows through it.
Why it matters
- The 200-micron (0.2 mm) mesh is made of rigid nylon thread, which keeps the opening size stable and allows very fine media such as Organ-Ex, Diamond Carbon or Rowa Carbon to be used.
- The nylon threads leave a wide open area, so water passes through the bag without a significant drop in flow.
- The bag closes with a hook-and-loop fastener and contains no metal parts, so nothing can dissolve into seawater.
- Nylon construction is meant to hold its shape over time, including with hard media that has sharp edges, and the bag can be rinsed under running water.

What it works with
The bag is intended for loose filter media in aquarium filtration, and its 500 ml capacity sets how much granular material it can hold. It is designed for fine media, so it suits setups where the media must be kept separate from the water flow while remaining easy to remove for cleaning or replacement.
