I recently got ICP results which show high phosphate. It’s at .70
I’ll retest at home. But usually don’t test. The tank has been running for almost a decade. Stopped doing regular tests for phosphate years ago. .70 phosphate is quite high.
I was surprised since I don’t have an algae issue and all corals look good.
Have what I think is normal growth on all established corals. Including SPS, LPS, Zoas.
Nothing is growing super fast. But it’s all growing.
And recently (2months ago) added a RBTA which is doing really great.
I have a phosban reactor (and media) which I never used before. Would it be wise to give it a twirl?
I would like to remove phosphate without causing any harm to healthy looking corals.
But if this can help with growth I want to do it.
I do waterchanges about every 3 weeks. Using NSW that I also got ICP tested. The NSW results for phosphate were also a bit high but closer to .15. Which I can live with.
