Best Chemical Filtration for Nano Reefs (w/o skimmer)

Hi all,

 

Looking for insight as to types of chemical filtration and setup folks have had best experience with on Nano reefs. I'm running a 6 gal Nano mixed reef currently with Chemipure Blue, in addition to filter floss. I do weekly ~15% water changes.

 

Specifically, really interested if anyone has been able to tell if they've had better success with Chemipure Elite, vs. the Blue version.

 

Thanks in advance!

I’ve run a 16 gallon nano (no skimmer) for the past five years with chemipure elite, floss and water changes (20% once a month). I did try blue for a couple of months but i had been having success with elite and recall that it’s shelf life was much shorter. Hope that helps.

Im running Chemipure Blue in my NUVO 20 with no skimmer and no filter socks either, I just fill a section in the back with marine pure balls and I also have chaeto in one of the section.  Im doing 5g water change once a week.  Everything seem to be doing well.  Tommy
