So I picked up the two 100ml packets of Purigen today; gonna put them in the AquaClear during the next water change (just did one yesterday, so next Tuesday). The question is, do I leave the floss in there with the Purigen, or is this totally overkill for polishing?
Also -- was able to rinse out the floss layer in the sink, during the WC, and I got most of the gunk out of it...looked almost new/white when I was done, and I didn't see any black areas. I just kept rinsing the floss under the tap, then squeezing out, then rinsing, then squeezing...took awhile, but a good amount of discolored water came out of it before I was done. So it's polishing SOMETHING...
