Phosphate Killer

About Phosphate Killer
It is a granular ferric oxide hydroxide and has a very high surface area on which phosphate can be adsorbed. It has therefore a very low weight per volume. The phosphate binding capacity of this product is, compared to some other quality products, up to 5 times higher. It binds phosphate far stronger than most other phosphate removing media such as the white colored alumina (aluminum oxide). It also does not leach toxic aluminum.The perfect combination of a very high phosphate adsorbing capacity and extreme strong adsorption of phosphate allow this product to reduce phosphate concentration in the aquarium water to what is found around natural pristine reefs.It can easily out-compete nuisance algae for phosphate. A reduced phosphate concentration will allow corals and coralline algae to grow much faster. Also some toxic heavy metals, silicate and many type of organics which are hard to remove by skimming or activated carbon can be reduced significantly.
