Fish eating Purigen...

[Steve_89]

A little lesson learned...

Do not leave bags of purgien in tanks with large fish....keep them in filters or sumps.

I just witnessed a RTCxTSN eat a full bag of purigen. The fish survived...only just.

LOL! I have never heard of fish eating a whole bag of Purigen! You're the first person I know to filter your fish instead of your tank!

Would that be considered an internal filter? If you could get them to swallow an AC70, it would save you a lot of work.

That's why this is "Lessons Learned" forum, not the "Perfectly operating setups" forum.
