- Is Chemi-Pure Green worth it over plain activated carbon?
- If your tank water yellows or smells and you keep plants, the resin adds organic removal that carbon alone does not do. For a bare quarantine tank, plain carbon is cheaper.
- How is it different from original Chemi-Pure?
- Original Chemi-Pure is aimed at general and saltwater use. Green is the freshwater version, blended to leave plant nutrients in the water.
- How much media do I use per filter?
- Boyd's guidance is roughly one 5-oz jar per 40 gallons, adjusted to your filter size and bioload. Start with one jar and change it when color or odor returns.
- How often should I replace it?
- Most owners swap it every four to six weeks, sooner in heavily stocked or tannin-heavy tanks. Exhausted resin stops clearing the water.
- Can I use it in a saltwater or reef tank?
- No. This is the freshwater formula; use original Chemi-Pure for marine tanks.
- What is in the 6-pack?
- Six 5-oz jars of Chemi-Pure Green media. Filter bags are not included, so you need media bags or a media chamber.
