A slightly off-white pad comes in rather nondescript package. It wasn't a day or two after cutting and placing it in my power filters media container that it became a rusty brown. I don't know for sure what it was absorbing but it certainly was absorbing something. The complaint I have is that despite claiming that it is easily reactivated by salt water I didn't have much success at removing the discoloration. I don't know if that's very important but all the same I couldn't get much out even in the saltiest of warm water. I even let it soak for hours and it didn't seem to affect it.Otherwise it definitely seems to work.

this product does what it says, but in my aquarium it died(got used up) quickly. i do not know why. to be fair, i use up purigen relatively fast also. maybe my aquarium is just dirty, or my filter doesn't hold enough media for 200gph.

I love this product. It seems to do what it says it does and it has never given me a reason to doubt it. With current research indicating Activated Carbon might cause HLLE this is your best option as far as I am concerned. They are also one of the few companies that has done real research on their product to prove their claims!

So far, this is the only product that actually got rid of my algea problem and I have literally tried them all much to my regret.

Product Description

The Poly-Bio-Marine Poly Filters are a formulation of a special patented material bonded to a synthetic matrix. By means of a unique proprietary process, the Poly Filter is made impervious to salt and is also organic loving to certain materials.
  • The Poly Filter pads absorb and adsorb contaminants and other toxic materials found in nature or added to fresh and salt water with or without fish and invertebrates
  • Medication added to aquariums for treatment of diseased fish will automatically be removed by the Poly Filter (after serving their intended purpose)
  • It provides a supplemental means for removal of ammonia when the biological filter is unable to break down the excess ammonia and its concentration increases rapidly
  • The pads are placed in any filter in a place where chemical filtration media is intended (generally, after the larger sediment has been filtered out)
  • Changes color when exhausted
