Seachem Purigen Organic Filtration Media 100 ml

Seachem Purigen Ultimate Filtration is a premium synthetic adsorbent for cleaning fish tanks and aquariums. It is not a mixture of ion exchangers or adsorbents, but a unique, macro-porous synthetic polymer that removes both soluble and insoluble impurities from water. 

Purigen Ultimate Filtration is made with high-quality ingredients that help control ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates by removing nitrogenous organic waste that would otherwise release these harmful compounds. It helps purify water and maintain its clarity. These marine Supplements raise redox and help keep fish healthy. Seachem Purigen is designed for use in both marine and freshwater systems.
