Purigen is it magic? | Reef2Reef
2021年1月28日 · According to Seachem's description, Purigen is a macroporous synthetic polymer. The pores trap particles from the water causing discoloration over time. I assume the bleach helps in breaking down the trapped particles to allow for rinsing them out in order to recharge the Purigen pellets.
Purigen. good? bad ? thoughts please | Reef2Reef
2020年10月26日 · I started to run purigen along with chemipure elite in a media basket on the back of AIO 29 biocube in 2014. This I changed out every 90 days.After this basket was a refugium basket with chaeto lit from the back. Tank was doing good until I started to get bryopsis and hair type algae.
How to "Regenerate" Seachem Purigen | Reef2Reef
2016年9月2日 · IMO, Purigen is ready to regenerate whenever it has, for the most part, changed color to brown or black. Use a glass container for the whole process. First, I start by rinsing the product very well in luke-warm tap water.
Seachem Purigen - Does it Really Remove Nitrates? | Reef2Reef
2015年1月30日 · I have about 200ml of Purigen for over an year and it has never changed colours. It is a 200l ULN tank, with a powerfull skimmer, vinegar dosing and GFO. For this setup the Purigen has never done anything IMO. Provided it is a ultra low nutrient system, it is expected Purigen wouldn't do much, anyway.
Seachem Pristine vs Phosguard vs Purigen? | Reef2Reef
2023年4月21日 · Purigen is a polymer binder of organic Nitrogen. Haven't seen any demonstration of its effectiveness. Pristine is a bottled bacterial product with claims like many others. If a bacteria has food, then it can do all of those things to ammonia, nitrate, phosphate etc. But if it does not have a food, then it will not do any of those things.
How much purigen is too much? - Nano-Reef Community

Matrix, Purigen, Chemipure, or Activated Carbon | Reef2Reef
2020年2月12日 · Chemipure functions pretty much exactly like purigen, but cannot be recharged. Activated Carbon removes similar things to Purigen, but has a very limited life, depending on the amount of contaminates. As I understand it, none of these products actually remove nitrate from the system, just prevent more from being made by organic wastes.
What exactly is Purigen and how does it work? | Reef2Reef
2016年4月18日 · IMO (as a polymer chemist), Purigen (an organic polymer) is more likely to work by binding organic matter before it breaks down to nitrate, than actually binding nitrate from seawater, where huge levels of chloride and sulfate will compete for binding sites.
