Yes it works! About Aquarium Water Treatment

This material keeps the water crystal clear within an hour of adding it to my 10 gallon aquarium. That's great. Also gone is a very small amount of ammonia that I had before.

Pros
  • Quality Construction
Cons
  • Expensive

Does NOT work best on fish and aquatic animals

3 bags in 75 gallon aquarium filter (light fish load) - 5 days and no change in ammonia. Is it just stones or are there too many other factors affecting the resin such as B. pH or hardness to be reliable.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • No

Seems to help keep NH3 under control

Seems to work as long as other things in the tank are under control. I'm running my Betta in a new tank and between water changes the NH3 goes up to 1ppm. After adding one of these to my filter system, the NH3 stayed at 0.25-0.5ppm for 3 days with two 20% water changes.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Some little things

If you struggle with yellow water or bad smell, try these

Aquarium essential. If you are struggling with yellow water or bad smell, try this. A layer of it in your filter works wonders. I'm only giving it 4 stars because they are quite small pouches and you need two of the three pouches for one shift. So I can't get 2 replacement filters out of one box.

Pros
  • Datura ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Almost Never

Fluval Ammonia Remover

Works as advertised. I have a 13 year old tortoise. Two tricks for those who hate tank washing. 1. Get the greatest Fluval possible. 2. Feed your turtle in a separate tank. I put mine in a 20 gallon tank with a couple inches of water in it. I feed her and let her splash around for 10-20 minutes until she's done, then I take her back to the big tank. If you do this, you'll only need to clean the Fluval every few months, not every 7-10 days if you're feeding in an aquarium.

Pros
  • Permanent Coating
Cons
  • Damaged

Used to modify my TopFin filter

I bought two of these to modify my rear filter that came with a 29 gallon TopFin. I don't use a cartridge and keep losing good bacteria in the system. So I decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did. I like the bags are not super big and fit perfectly. I've found them to work well in my aquarium. However, there are a few things I would like to mention here. Every aquarium is unique and has its own system. Be sure to remove all of the dust in the ruined bags (I ripped it into a bucket filledโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Just doesn't work for me.

While this product is easy to use and comes in a separate media pouch, it just doesn't work for me. I measure my pH, ammonia, nitrites and nitrates at least twice a day if I see too many toxins on a previous test. or every time I change the water before and a few hours after. I test both total ammonia (API set) and free ammonia (Seachem symbol). I had a tank where the loop accidentally crashed and thus reset from scratch. I had no other place to put the fish so I put them in a makeshift bucketโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
