Seachem Purigen is a tool that every hobbyist, both beginner and advanced, should have in their aquatic tool kit. It is a scientifically formulated premium synthetic adsorbent that is not a mixture of ion exchangers or adsorbents, but a unique macro-porous synthetic polymer that removes soluble and insoluble impurities from both freshwater and saltwater at a rate and capacity that exceeds all other competitive products by over 500%.
The formula helps to control ammonia, nitrites and nitrates by removing nitrogenous organic waste that would build up and release harmful chemicals into your aquarium water column, negatively impacting all aquatic life within the aquarium. Though Purigen's impact on beneficial trace elements is minimal, it significantly raises redox and polishes water with unparalleled clarity.
Seachem Purigen's ability to clear haziness and polish water is unparalleled in the market today. Unlike other available competitive products which are just basic ion-exchange resins, this solution is specifically designed to be an organic scavenging resin and generally ignores simple elemental compounds, having an extreme affinity for nitrogenous organics. Nitrogenous compounds come from aquarium waste produced by fish, coral, as well as plants. The Purigen beads are uniquely spherical and macro-reticular in shape and the increased surface area provides an enhanced capacity with microscopic pores that increase its usable surface area to many times that of other products on the market, which are made of purely spherical resin. The versatile product can be used in a wide variety of filtration applications such as in a canister filter, media chamber, box filter, or any high flow area of a trickle filter.
To add to the already incredibly functionality of this product, Purigen can actually be regenerated to retain efficiency and effectiveness in the long term. As it adsorbs waste products, the beads will change colour from a pale blonde to a dark brown, nearly black coloration. Once it is exhausted, it can be regenerated with a solution of bleach and water. The bleach will literally "burn off" the organics that have been removed from the tank. Watch out for products that claim to be regenerable with a brine solution. That is the regeneration procedure for ion-exchange purposes. Brine solutions will not remove necessary harmful organics. While such resins have a limited capacity for organic adsorption, a brine regeneration process only replaces removed ionic compounds and it does not destroy large organic molecules that were removed, which is the primary function of organic adsorption resins in the first place.
Seachem Reef Glue safe and fast-acting cyanoacrylate gel that has been specially designed to glue and mount coral frags and colonies to live reef rock or ceramic plugs. As the coral frags themselves are extremely delicate, it is of the utmost importance to be able to safely and gently affix them to surfaces without damage and without them constantly falling off of their mounts.
This new and improved formula is actually 17 times thicker than competing brands, making it easier to control with significantly less mess. Furthermore, to make Seachem Reef Glue even better, the solution bonds within seconds, even underwater! With incredible versatility, the glue can be used in both freshwater and saltwater environments and comes with a no-mess cap in an aluminum tube to ensure the glue itself won't dry out prior to use.
Seachem Silicone Sealant is a top-of-the-line 100% RTV silicone sealant designed to seal and repair freshwater and saltwater aquariums. The formula creates a permanently flexible, watertight seal with a high tensile strength that won't crack, dissolve or shrink from the pressure or stress caused by the weight of water in your tank. The solution provides unmatched adhesion and comes in a clear or black colour in a 3 oz tube.
Seachem Stability is a scientifically formulated solution designed to quickly and safely establish an aquarium biofilter in both freshwater and saltwater environments, helping to prevent the number one cause of fish death - new tank syndrome.
The formula contains a synergistic blend of aerobic, anaerobic and facultative bacteria that help to aid in the breakdown of potentially harmful waste organics, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. Seachem Stability uses non-sulphur fixing bacteria that will not produce toxic hydrogen sulphide and is completely safe for all aquatic organisms and plants. There is no danger of overuse!
Many other competing products use bacteria that are unstable, and the requirements for their development and growth operate within a limited range of temperatures, pH, organic loads and other variables. If any one of these parameters falls out of the appropriate range, the entire bacterial culture will quickly die, compromising the biological security of your tank as well as causing fish death. But Stability does not have this problem as the conditions for bacterial growth fall into a much larger range. Additionally, when other various bacteria start to die (most often from the high organic load caused by the death of a fish, plant or other organisms) Stability will actually become more effective in establishing new biofilters.
Seachem Stability is a fast-acting biofilter solution that safely establishes beneficial bacteria in freshwater and saltwater aquariums, helping prevent new tank syndrome. Its advanced formula breaks down waste, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate using a stable blend of bacteria that adapts to a wide range of conditions.
Safe for all aquatic life and impossible to overdose, Stability ensures a reliable and resilient biological system, making it ideal for new tanks, livestock additions, or recovering from disruptions.

Seachem Tidal 110 MatrixCarbon is the ideal powerful chemical filter media for freshwater aquariums. The high-efficiency material is made up of activated carbon that has been formed into a spherical bead for optimum hydrodynamics. It will not pack together, and combined with high density macroporous binding sites, ensures a consistent flow and contact of water at all times.
Features a very low ash content, which means it has a minimal impact on the pH levels within your tank, and even in distilled water, the pH will not raise about 7.0. Compared to other carbon filter media on the market, MatrixCarbon has the lowest detectable leachable phosphate content and outperforms other carbons but at least twofold in the capacity to remove organic matter, rates of absorption and duration of use.
This material acts not only as a chemical filter but as a unique mechanical filter as well, though it is only capable of filtering objects of molecular size. Featuring extremely minute cracks and crevices called macropores and micropores, the microporous carbon removes primarily metals and small ions such as trace minerals and is well suited for air filtration, while macroporous carbons remove primarily larger organic molecules (like nitrogenous waste) and are best suited to water filtration.
Seachem Matrix Bio-Media is a professional grade high porosity bio-media designed to provide efficient bio-filtration specifically for the targeted removal of nitrogenous waste in both freshwater and marine aquariums.
This high capacity biofiltration helps to control harmful compounds in your aquarium such as ammonia, nitrate and nitrite, effectively keeping these elements at safe levels as to not harm the aquatic inhabitants of your tank
