Helps keep pH at a consistently safe range and your water sparkling clear. Fantastic for use with African Cichlids and Discus. Chemi-Pure Elite adds ferric oxide to the original Chemi-Pure formula to also remove phosphates and silicates, making it the only complete choice for filtering any kind of aquarium. Each pre-bagged 5 oz Chemi-Pure or Chemi-Pure Elite treats up to 20 gallons; 10 oz Chemi-Pure or 11.74 oz Chemi-Pure Elite unit treats up to 40 gallons. Each extra large 40 oz Grande or 46.96 Grande Elite nylon bags treat 175-200 gallons. Remains active 4-6 months.
Tips from our Techs Many of our customers enjoy fewer necessary water changes when they use Chemi-Pure. Its ability to sustain and stabilize high water quality over longer periods makes it quite popular with discus and reef keepers.
Please click on "More Information" for usage instructions.
Use 1 package for aquariums up to 40 gallons, 2 packages for 40- to 100-gallon aquariums. Aquariums above 100 gallons require 2 packages plus one package for every additional 25 gallons.
Instructions:
Keep Chemi-Pure package sealed until ready for use. Be sure to place Chemi-Pure in an area of your filter that is large enough to accept the amount needed. Use the formula supplied to figure the amount of Chemi-Pure you need. Do not divide packages under any circumstances.
Do not open filter bag. Remove by turning bottle upside down and shaking. Rinse lightly and place bag in filter and flatten out as much as possible. Any area not filled by the bag should be packed evenly with glass or Dacron filter wool and then place a thin layer of the same over bag. Change wool and rinse off bag when flow-through filter decreases.

I have been using Chemi-Pure in my freshwater tanks for over 10 years now and love it. I recommend it to all my friends with fish tanks. I have not found a better price for the product than the one offered at Drs. Foster & Smith.
Great product at what a bargain price!!!! I have found nothing better. My tank was sparkling clear within hours and I have not had one problem with cloudiness since. My fish are doing great and I do not have to change my water every few days anymore! I will never go without this product again!
If you're serious about water quality, then Chemi-Pure is for you. I use it in my wet/dry trickle filter system as the chemical filtration. My discus have never been happier and my tank maintenance has been reduced. This is an outstanding product!
Excellent Product, I have used Chemi-Pure for years and still feel it is the best on the market. I replace it every 60 days. It has the best effect 3 days to 45 days in the aquarium. The best for product for the dollar!
I've used Chemi-Pure for years in hundreds of aquariums with amazing results! I couldn't provide the sparkling clear water my clients demand without it. No other product works better and it even scavenges ammonia and nitrate!
Best filter media ever...tank is amazingly clear and it also does not take the tea color away from my blackwater tank..was having nitrite spikes plus some nitrate when i put it in, and I was about to leave for 4 days of camping so I was very nervous..I trusted it to work and when I came home my water chemistry was PERFECT! have an extra on hand(elite) and will be using as long as I have an aquarium.
I have been using Chemi-Pure Elite Grande size on my 125 gallon Discus tank for over a year now and the results have been amazing! I use a sump filter and this is the only chemical filtration I use. I typically change it out every 3-4 months for best results. I used Purigen by Seachem prior to using this product, but found Chemi-pure to be superior and am very glad that I do not have to recharge it every month with caustic bleach like I did with Purigen. Chemi-pure is a must have for any aquarium!!
I used Chemi-Pure product in my 90G saltwater reef tank for the first time. All I can say is I will never use anything ever again, my tank is so clear, with no scent present good or bad! Love the product!!!
Excellent product. This works GREAT at keeping my water clear. It will reduce maintenance as well. It really is a good buy. The price offered here from Foster and Smith is very good.
I am using the Chemi-Pure Elite (2 bags) on my 70 gallon marine reef. (I have a wet-dry filter and a cannister). Incredible difference in the water quality. Zeroed out my ammonia problem pretty much overnight.. No comparison! Great Stuff. Buying 2 more to keep on hand.
Don't take the quality of your tap water for granted. If you draw your water from a well, nature may not be providing you the perfect balance. If you are using tap water from your municipal department, it likely includes minerals and additives.
Algae are prolific and opportunistic organisms that take advantage of aquarium systems that are out of balance. Water quality issues create ideal conditions for algae. This article explains how proper water quality helps control algae.
Coral propagation is a challenging and rewarding aspect of the reef aquarium hobby. It is also a great way to promote coral conservation. Learn more here.
Mechanical filtration can greatly improve the health of most aquariums, and is also important for the efficiency of your biological filtration. The process is simple: mechanical media strains solid debris.
