Seachem Purigen 100ml (bagged)

Seachem Purigen is a high-capacity synthetic polymer that polishes aquarium water to crystal clarity and removes soluble and insoluble organic waste. It is priced approximately at 30 NZD to 42 NZD for 100 mL and 62 NZD to 68 NZD for 250 mL. This product is safe for freshwater and saltwater tanks and can be reused after bleaching.

Key Features and Benefits

Superior Clarity:
Clears cloudy water and removes tannins from driftwood much faster than standard carbon.

Waste Control:
Absorbs nitrogenous organic compounds to help control ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates.

Safe for Plants/Corals:
Ignores basic elements and minerals while targeting waste, meaning it won't strip essential plant nutrients.

Color Change:
The white/blonde beads turn dark brown or black as they fill with waste, indicating when they need cleaning.

How to Use and Clean

Placement:
Rinse before use and place it in a fine-mesh bag (180 microns or smaller) in an area with high water flow inside your filter.

Regeneration:
Soak the exhausted, dark beads in a 1:1 household bleach and water mix for 24 hours. Rinse thoroughly, then soak for 8 hours in water treated with a strong dechlorinator (like Seachem Prime) before placing it back in the tank.
