Quantum Phosphate Remover

Phosphate Remover While phosphates are a primary nutrient source, and are an essential element in a healthy saltwater environment, excess phosphates can have detrimental impacts on the health of your marine life. High phosphate concentrations can lead to aggressive algae blooms in your tank, increased brown tissue growth in your corals (which can mask their natural vivid pigment), and reduced calcium carbonate uptake (which can negatively impact your corals’ skeleton growth). Phosphates exist as ionic and chemically bound by calcium. This causes fluctuations of calcium. In addition, it causes false readings of low phosphate, due to test kits not being able to test for bound phosphate. This is a concern if you are not using a quality phosphate remover, as you cannot rely on your test readings to be accurate. Our Phosphate Remover is designed to eliminate both ionic and chemically bound phosphate in marine and reef aquariums. The media and carbon sources quickly remove the ionic phosphate. Note, however, that it will take longer to remove the bound phosphate, due to its high stability. Our Phosphate Remover will precipitate out both ionic and chemically bound phosphate and place it in existing filter wool/socks. A fine white film building on the glass indicates that you are overdosing. We recommend adjusting your dose and using our White Film Remover Padsto safely clean any buildup from your tank.
