My recent ICP test shows elevated Aluminium levels in the tank.

the only addition i have added is purigen to polish the water that little better and cant seem to find anything in the searches to try identify if there is any aluminium in the product.

would anyone know if this would be the contributor?

Are your fish or corals showing signs of stress. If you think it's the purigen then stop dosing it and keep testing if the aluminum goes down I'd do some water changes and not use the product again.

Thanks for the replies
yes leather coral only opens on a rare occasion now where it was always open and SPS are not showing polyp extension even though they did. ICP only indicates that the Aluminium is elevated and i cant pinpoint a source for it no Phosguard ever been used
