Which is better Chemi-Pure Blue Vs. Purigen

[ReeferPrime]

Wondering which of these are better for my 10 gallon reef tank.

I mean how are you running it ,little sump, canister, hob?

I've used chemi pure blue nano packets and chemi pure elite plus purigen. I like elite plus purigen and I run mine in a media rack in my 12 gallon nano.

The blue has purigen in it, might not be by seachem but looks identical to me, and a lot more goodies in the blue to so hands down IMA say blue is the best.

I prefer Chemi-Elite.

I prefer purigen. Can visibly tell when the media is exhausted and can be recharged several times. I always ran purigen and brs rox carbon in separate bags on my nano.

Imo having a way to quickly tell if the media is exhausted makes purigen slightly "better". I always wonder if my carbon is still good or not. Sure there are general guides, but short of adding dye and seeing if the color is removed there isn't a really easy way to determine exhaustion.

I want to run it wit my hang on the filter.

Another vote for Blue nano packets, easy and effective.

 

[ReeferPrime]

So far its chemi-pure anyone disagree.

I would have to agree with hart24601, I really like purigen and love that you can tell when the media is exhausted.
