Default Chemi Pure

Have read good things about this and was thinking of trying it. But it states on there site you can't open the bag. So as i don't have a canister filter and i need 3 bags so putting in the sump won't work can it fit in a phosban reactor in there bags?


Thanks Craig

I also put a bag in my phosban reactor, you have to be a bit creative to get it in there (ie. lay it flat then wrap around the middle tube and put it in that way) but it works great! I only put one bag in but I would imagine you can fit two in there max.

If you used a filter sock you could cram it in there. It works as a great "holder" for carbon and other types of media. I usually put it in a bag first (of course chemi-pure already comes in a bag ).
