ReefZlements PhosPlus 250 ml
Phosphorus is an extremely important element for the microfauna and nutrition of corals. When present in sufficient quantities, it promotes "biological filtration" and improved colouration and health of corals.
For bacteria and other microscopic organisms to assimilate carbon and nitrogen, phosphorus is required in sufficient quantities.
With the increased efficiency of filtration systems, low and ultra-low nutrient aquariums are becoming more common. These systems are often low in phosphorus. When a system is low in nutrients, it means that the "biological filtration" is not running as efficiently as it should, and nutrients such as NO3 can rise and
become pollutants unless other forms of filtration are used.
PhosPlus supports the growth and reproduction of micro-organisms and improves biological filtration by allowing microscopic plankton and bacteria to consume carbon and nitrogen. These bacteria can then be exported via mechanical filtration or used as food by other organisms in our aquariums, such as sponges, corals, mussels, tunicates, etc.
PhosPlus is a natural source of PO4 that can be added to the aquarium in a controlled manner to achieve ideal PO4 levels. We recommend using PhosPlus to achieve PO4 levels of about 0.04 mg/l.
Before dosing PhosPlus, we recommend using reliable and accurate phosphate test kits to determine the phosphate level in the aquarium.
1ml PhosPlus increases the PO4 content in 100l aquarium water by ~0.01ppm.
Once the phosphate levels are determined, we recommend increasing only 0.01-0.02ppm PO4 per day by dosing the required amount and waiting 24 hours to test the PO4 levels. This process should be repeated until the desired PO4 levels are achieved.
If PO4 is dosed and after 24 hours both NO3 and PO4 levels do not begin to decrease, your system may be low in carbon.
Caution. Keep out of reach of children. Not suitable for human consumption.
