Hi,
I've been told and read that Matrix works the best.
I have used De*Nitrate and I'm not sure it did anything. IMO

I have had very good results with Matrix. Check out my thread Excellent Nitrate Media .

De-nitrate is ok, but you have to be place it in areas of low flow. De-nitrate works best with less then 50gph flow going through it.
