Anyone Still Using Chemi Pure?
 
Just wondering if anyone is still using it and do you run it in a bag or in a reactor?

Tagging along. Just started to use chemi pure elite and want to see how others are doing.

I was thinking of doing the same thing. Since the bio pellet craze started I wonder how many people are still using it. J&L is backordered on the large container of Chemi Pure Elite, who else carries it?

I was hoping to get the larger container since I will need seven of the small jars for my tank. Can you get the large container?

Does anyone find a yellow film on top of the water in a few first weeks of starting with a new bag?

ScubaSteve 12-08-2010 06:38 PM

I still use it. Right now I use it in bags in the sump section of my biocube and in a bag in the HOB filter of my main tank. In about a month or so when I get my sump ip and running I'll switch the bag for a reactor.

Did you give it a light rinse?

ScubaSteve 12-08-2010 07:12 PM

Always, always give it a good rinse before using it!

Yes, we can get them. The 46 oz. containers of Chemi-Pure Elite are $45.

the yellow scum at the surface does seem odd, can't say i've ever heard that before. But i will do some investigating! Cheers Ronnie

I had that happen a couple times in my biocube though I have never been able to pinpoint the cause. I don't think that the chemipure is the cause though.

I always rinse it very well. I use it in a canister filter, I do like the results of it. Like I had mentioned before everything growing extremely well with it and I like the fact not touching it for 6 months. But every time I will get the film on top of the water.
