Evolution Aqua PURE Aquarium – Beneficial Bacteria for Clear, Healthy Water
Evolution Aqua PURE Aquarium is a biological aquarium treatment containing beneficial bacteria and enzymes suspended inside biodegradable gel balls. Designed for freshwater aquariums, it helps maintain clear water, break down organic waste and support the beneficial bacteria responsible for healthy biological filtration.
Unlike liquid bacterial supplements, PURE Aquarium uses a convenient gel-ball delivery system. Once placed in aquarium water, the balls gradually release bacteria that establish themselves on filter media, substrate and other aquarium surfaces.
Whether you're maintaining an established tropical aquarium or supporting biological filtration after a disruption, PURE Aquarium provides an easy way to supplement your aquarium's beneficial bacteria.

How Does PURE Aquarium Work?
Every PURE Aquarium gel ball contains bacteria and enzymes suspended within a biodegradable polymer.
When placed in the aquarium, the bacteria are released into the water and begin establishing themselves on surfaces such as filter media, decorations and substrate.
These beneficial microorganisms help process fish waste and organic material while supporting the biological processes that convert harmful ammonia and nitrite into less harmful substances.
As the bacteria are released, the gel balls gradually shrink and biodegrade.
PURE Aquarium is designed to supplement your aquarium's existing biological filtration rather than replace it.
Helps Maintain Clear Aquarium Water
Cloudy aquarium water can have several causes, including suspended organic material and changes in bacterial activity.
PURE Aquarium is designed to help break down organic waste and maintain biological balance, which can contribute to clearer aquarium water over time.
Evolution Aqua also recommends PURE Aquarium for ongoing maintenance and for supporting aquariums following disruptions to biological filtration.
Important: PURE Aquarium is not designed to eliminate green water caused by suspended algae. Evolution Aqua recommends appropriate UV-C treatment for green-water problems.
How to Use Evolution Aqua PURE Aquarium
Weekly Maintenance Dose
For regular maintenance:
Add 1–2 PURE Aquarium balls per 25 litres of aquarium water once per week.
Place the balls directly into your aquarium filter, ideally inside a filter-media bag to keep them contained.
First-Time Use or Water Clarity Problems
For the initial treatment or when aquarium water has clarity problems:
Add 5–10 PURE Aquarium balls per 100 litres of aquarium water.
Once the water clears, continue with the regular weekly maintenance dose.
Where Should You Place the Balls?
Evolution Aqua recommends placing PURE Aquarium balls inside the aquarium filter, preferably in an area with water flow.
A filter-media bag can help keep the balls together while allowing water to circulate around them.
If filter placement isn't possible, the manufacturer advises that they may be added directly to aquariums containing small fish. However, larger fish may attempt to eat the balls, so placing them securely in the filter is preferable.
Suitable for Freshwater Aquariums
PURE Aquarium is designed for freshwater aquarium systems, including:
-
Tropical community aquariums
-
Freshwater planted aquariums
-
Discus aquariums
-
Freshwater shrimp and invertebrate aquariums
-
Established freshwater aquariums requiring regular biological maintenance
The product is safe for freshwater fish and invertebrates, but water quality should still be monitored as part of normal aquarium care.
For marine aquariums, Evolution Aqua offers separate products specifically designed for saltwater use.
PURE Aquarium vs PURE Aquarium Bomb
Although both products contain beneficial bacteria, they are intended for different purposes.
PURE Aquarium uses smaller biodegradable gel balls for regular weekly maintenance, helping support biological balance and clearer aquarium water.
PURE Aquarium Bomb provides a larger, concentrated bacterial treatment designed primarily for aquarium start-up, cycling and biological filtration problems involving ammonia or nitrite.
For ongoing maintenance of an established freshwater aquarium, regular PURE Aquarium balls are the more appropriate product.

Aquarium Haven Tip
Add PURE Aquarium directly to your filter during your regular maintenance routine.
Keeping the gel balls contained in a filter-media bag makes them easier to manage while allowing the released bacteria to circulate through the filtration system.
Remember that beneficial bacteria need a suitable environment to establish. Good oxygenation, consistent filtration, sensible feeding and regular water testing remain essential for a healthy aquarium.
