Does anyone know how long it takes for Rowaphos to clear Aluminum and Silicates? I also have some Phosban on order. Also curious if anyone, Randy, knows how much it can absorb before depletion?

Correct, typo. What do you mean by white media? The base to my RO Elite is white. The only media I use is carbon, bio pellets, and now rowaphos. I think the contamination is coming from my gooseneck for the AI prime. I just noticed it is severely rusted while doing some other maintenance. I am going to coat it all in silicone 1.
The only stuff I use like that is x-port natural stone bio media balls. This is what I found. I have since sealed the holes with silicone. Sincerely appreciate the help.
I just received ICP #2. After two weeks of rowaphos my Aluminum has dropped from 316 to 290 and silicates from 520 to 357. I pulled out the rowaphos just prior, as in an hour, to getting the results, because the phosphates are at near zero. My conclusions are that the rowaphos does work but removal of the media is a must. I will start that tonight with half of it and a water change. I think a giant warning needs to be posted about that media.
