Seachem Purigen® – Ultimate Organic Waste Remover for Crystal Clear Water
Seachem Purigen® is a premium synthetic filtration resin designed to remove organic waste and impurities far more efficiently than standard media. With a unique macro-porous structure and massive surface area, it polishes aquarium water to unmatched clarity and helps control ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels by targeting nitrogenous waste before it becomes a problem.
Ideal for both freshwater and marine setups, Purigen® remains effective long-term and changes colour as it exhausts, making it easy to monitor. It’s also easily regenerated, making it a highly economical choice for keeping aquariums clean and healthy.
