Seachem Purigen & Macro Algae

[chromakey]

Hi:

It is brand new. This is the first time I am using Purigen.

I added one piece of dead rock last week. I soaked it for 4 or 5 days. I don't think should have done too much.

When it's time to regenerate, 50/50 water/bleach and then when it turns back to somewhat original color it's done. (or at most 12-24 hrs) After that rinse a few times in water and then use 2x dose for a dechlorinator. Swish often and leave until the bleach smell goes. (again 12-24 hrs) Don't use a declorinator that says 'added slime coat' type of thing as Seachem says this additive will clog the micro pores of Purigen.

I've used for a while so if you needed tips, glad to help.
