What did you put the Purigen in ? Hopefully you didn't place it loose in your filter.
It must be bagged, in fine mesh bagging - preferably 'the bag' available from Seachem specifically to bag Purigen. Any other bag, and you would likely need to double-bag it to prevent the minute particles from escaping into your tank.

Net it out, and vac out what you can. UGH, what a mess. I'm very glad not to be in your place tonight.

On the bright side, you know it's not going to harm the tank much.
