Seachem Purigen is a premium synthetic adsorbent that is unlike any other filtration product. It is not a mixture of ion exchangers or adsorbents, but a unique macro-porous synthetic polymer that removes soluble and insoluble impurities from water at a rate and capacity that exceeds all others by over 500%.
Seachem Purigen controls ammonia, nitrites and nitrates by removing nitrogenous organic waste that would otherwise release these harmful compounds. Seachem Purigen impact on trace elements is minimal. It significantly raises redox. It polishes water to unparalleled clarity. Seachem Purigen darkens progressively as it exhausts, and is easily renewed by treating with bleach.
A 100ml pouch of Purigen should be used for every 100 gallons. Simply place the pouch in any trickle filter, canister filter, box filter or in any area that has a consistent flow of water running.
You will know when to recharge your Purigen pouch when the yellow beads in the pouch turn brown. Simply recharge the pouch by soaking it in a bleach / water solution for up to 24 hours.
Seachem Purigen is designed for both marine and freshwater use.

Purchased this product awhile back from PetSmart. The Item was on clearance at a ridiculous price, about $2, so I jumped and bought it. I did not use it until Jan. of this year, product is so small it needs a special bag by Seachem ("The Bag"). I'm using it on a 29gal Reef tank in a Fluval 305 canister filter. The water quality is incredible! Its almost June, thats 6 months and its starting to look pinkish from use. I will re-charge once it turns brownish or black as instructed. This product has made my first saltwater venture an easy one. My coral and live animals look amazing and healthy! Don't hesitate to buy this!!

I would not have a reef tank without it! Very easy to use just stick it in your over the back filter and watch the results! No downfalls with this stuff--

I have only been using this for a short period and It has really made a difference in the clarity of my water. I will never go back to standard carbon.

I run this product on a 33 gal reef. I have it in my rena filter star. I use no skimmer and do water changes 2-3 times a month. This stuff is great! It polishes my water crystal clear, and I don't have to worry about any leaching unlike some carbon media. I highly recommend it. 500 ml will last me 8 months.
