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 other competing products by over 500%. Purigen controls ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates by removing nitrogenous organic waste that would otherwise release these harmful compounds. Its impact on trace elements is minimal. It significantly raises redox. It polishes water to unparalleled clarity. Purigen darkens progressively as it exhausts and is easily renewed by treating with bleach. Purigen is designed for both marine and freshwater use.
Features
:- High Adsorption Capacity : Purigen removes soluble and insoluble impurities at a rate and capacity that exceeds all competing products by over 500%. This high efficiency makes it an excellent choice for maintaining water quality in both freshwater and marine aquariums.
- Removal of Nitrogenous Waste : Purigen effectively controls ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates by removing nitrogenous organic waste that would otherwise release these harmful compounds into the water.
Applications
:- Removing Organic Waste: Primarily used to effectively remove nitrogenous organic waste (like ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate precursors) from aquarium water before they break down into harmful compounds.
- Achieving Crystal-Clear Water: Highly effective at polishing water, removing tannins and other discolorations, leading to exceptionally clear and sparkling aquarium water.
- Enhancing Fish Health & Reducing Stress: By removing organic pollutants, it significantly improves water quality, which reduces stress on fish and helps prevent common illnesses.
- Reducing Algae Nutrients: Helps control algae growth by adsorbing excess nutrients, particularly phosphates and nitrates (though not directly), that fuel algae blooms.
- Maintaining Stable Water Parameters: Contributes to a more stable aquatic environment by preventing the accumulation of undesirable organic compounds without affecting beneficial trace elements.
