Ultra Phos 0.04

[The Opinionated Reefer]

I have some of this Phos 0.04 that is supposed to never bring down your levels below 0.04 which sounds like a good idea to me and I don't understand how it's not more popular?

Anyway it says: Use 50 ml Ultra PHOS 0,04 per 100 liters of water.
After 5 days, you can increase the amount of up to 100 ml per 100 liters of water.

But it comes in grams, how do I know how many grams to use? I have a reefer 350L tank so how many grams would i use? I dont know how to meare a solid in ml?

HI
This is a granule which you can meare in a usual measuring cup , You can also use 50 gramm / by 26 USgal, this is nearly the same ammount and increase later another 50 gramm.

Here in Europe it is quite popular and it works usually very good.

I am in the UK, no idea what a cup measurement is but your saying 50ml = 50gram?

trying this product, seems to be VERY slow, in 10 days i've moved from 0.45 to 0.27... started with 200ml for 5 days then added more product up to 400ml, for a 400 liters tank.

which speed should i expect? the increased dose, is an addition or a total replacement of the starting dose?

Hello, Phos 0,04 isn´t really meant to be used with values that high. It´s shows it full potencial in holdling 0,04 with it´s slow and steady adsorbtion.

If you are looking for a product to get under 0,1 I would recomment Power Phos instead of Phos 0,04.

Better to use Power phos or ultra phos?

last qywstion;: assuming i'm around 0.04, should i increase the dose after 5 days or the initial one would be ok? in other words, when should i increase? in which situation?

it's an increase or a full replacement with double dosage?
