    Finally! Phosphate and Chemistry are Stable

    For a variety of reasons, I have a high bio-load and low coral density at the moment. This means that nutirents are not absorbed as much as I'd experienced previously. On top of that, I had about 3 months where I barely paid attention to the tank, and the phosphate crept upwards to about...

    Phosphates! Can’t get them down…

    Hey guys, I’ve a 60 gallon cube setup now with almost 4 months. I run it with two canister filters, one of which was on a smaller reef tank so was already to go for this tank. I’ve always being growing a lot of hair algae, and started to figure out it was my phosphates. I’ve been doing water...

    GFO in canister ?

    Hey, I run my 60 gallon cube off an oase 350 canister filter. It works great, except for phosphates. Everything else is perfect (pH, Alk, Nitrate etc) but phosphates are through the roof, which is leading to a lot of hair algae. I’m currently awaiting a Venturi to arrive for my DIY HOB skimmer...

    GFO reactor not working?

    Hi I am using GFO in a reactor to try and lower my phosphate currently at 0.264ppm using Hanna ULR. I cross referenced this result with salifert and it appears to be the same. My issue is that my GFO seemed to not be doing much so I tested the effluent coming out of the reactor about 10 mins...

    Phosphate leaching from carib sea life rock

    Hi all, recently set up my new tank using caribsea life rock and broken up established live rock. I currently have a phosphate reading of 0.24ppm. Could phosphate be leaching from the life rock? I’ve added around 70g of rowaphos but it doesn’t seem to be lowering. Thanks!

    Phosphate RX (or similar products) vs. GFO

    For weeks I have been trying to lower my phosphates, and it is unclear to me why I had not been successful. I currently have 0.34 ppm phosphate (Hanna ULR) / Nitrate 10.8 (Hanna). I would like to get to 0.05-0.1, but not much lower than that, since I had previously dinos due to 0/0 parameters...

    Hair algae, started dosing GFO

    I have been battling hair algae for a couple months now. Basically, target vacuuming up from the rock work, but it is getting out of hand due to high phosphate levels. so, I started running GFO in a reactor, but now I have cloudy water. Is this normal?Does this eventually run clear?

    Gfo leading to more algae issues

    Initially I had a nitrate/phosphate issue where nitrates were at 30 and phosphates were at 1.5. changed feeding (including feeder, food types) and nopox and got the nitrates down to 10-12. Fine with with that. Phosphate still was hanging at 1.1 and just not coming down. Added HC GFO to a media...

    Add phosphate with doser then remove it with gfo reactor on timer?

    Is it possible to dose phosphate during the optimal period of the daily photo cycle, based on the best time corals are known to absorb phosphate from the water?
