    Carbon Alternatives/Chemical Filtration add nauseam

    Hardly original topic (emphasis) and in fact to beat a dead horse with a howitzer on this topic here are a few of the longer threads/most replies, (and I didn't even get past page 2 on most searches). ….not all links tested Who uses Carbon AND Chemipure Blue in their tanks? Purigen versus...

    Is purigen regeneration tricky?

    I have never used purigen, because I'm afraid the regeneration process might easily go wrong. Do you need to be super careful with the residual chlorine from the bleach? Or you're always gonna be fine as long as you add the correct amount of dechlorinator and then rinse? Are there any "horror...

    Seachem Pristine vs Phosguard vs Purigen?

    Hi guys, I've been doing some research on products I might get for my tank, and came across 3 relatively similar products all made by Seachem, and I'm wondering if anyone knows what each of them do specifically, or how they work together. The main issues with my tank that I'm looking to solve...

    Purigen - new bottle is orange-ish, wet-ish, & clumpy-ish?

    Hi all, I bought a 250ml bottle of Purigen. It's sort of orange and damp and clumpy. Is this normal for Purigen? I feel like when I bought the last bottle it was more white and more-or-less dry. Thanks!

    Is Purigen less effective when used with Ozone?

    As Randy points out, carbon removes more organics when combined Ozone. Conversely, I've read at least a couple of times that Purigen "stays white" much longer when combined with ozone. This suggests Purigen does not remove as many organics as it would without ozone. An example here...

    Purigen

    Quick question, for purigen, do you leave the media in the original bag it comes with, or do you have to put it in separate media bag?

    Purigen, SeaGel, or Both?

    I'm gonna use it in my 5 gal sump that is connected to my 8 gal DT. I'm planning to buy Matrix and one Purigen or SeaGel, or should I use both of them together?

    NO3:PO4 -X (NOPOX) and Seachem Purigen compatibility.

    To combat a surge of nitrates I have recently been dosing NOPOX. So far I have been seeing results, but also remembered I currently and running purigen in a reactor. Will these 2 compounds clash at all? I am seeing results, but I would like to min/max this process and not strip any chemistry...
