All,
Just discovered a great product. Generally I am rarely suprised by filter medias but I recently decided to give a new one a try. One of my 55's houses two medium sized oscars. Oscars, as you likely know, are not the neatest of fish in fact, I'm quite sure that Mr. Madison from the Odd Couple got his name from them
Anyway, this tank always had a bit of cloudiness to it. Just enough to be noticable and impossible to get rid of with the exception of a daitom. I decided to try some Seachem Purigen. I added twice the recommended amount to an XP3 and voila - sparkling clear water. This has been consistent since I added it about 3 weeks ago. It's as if the tank is diatom'd 24/7.

Go to Products then filtration, then Purigen
Highly recommended. Not cheap though, but I don't think you need much and it can be re-gen'd.
