Power Phos by Fauna Marin is a way to remove unwanted silicates and phosphates from your aquarium in a safe and effective manner. Power Phos is a wet Iron-hydroxide based absorber, that when used correctly allows the pollutants to bind to the surface of Power Phos and will not be released back into the water column again.
PowerPhos can maintain very low nutrient concentrations in your tank. Unwanted Algae growth will be stopped and corals will show their natural colours.
Instructions and Dosing recommendation:
Please do all changes in the aquarium carefully and slowly.
Start with 100 ml per 300 L (79 gallons) of water.
After 5 days the dose can be increased up to 150 ml per 300 L (79 gallons) of water.
Never use more than 200 ml for 300 L (79 gallons) of water.
To obtain best results and maximize absorption efficiency, place the material between two layers of filter wool/floss or use a fluidized-bed-reactor.
Check phosphate concentration regularly with reliable test kits
PowerPhos is not suitabel for tanks that already have very low phosphate concentrations.
If phosphate concentrations start to increase again, exchange PowerPhos for fresh material.
PowerPhos is suitable for fresh and saltwater. The material can warm up when getting wet for the first time.
The red colouration of the water is caused by the fine dust attached to the absorber. It is not harmful and vanishes quickly.
Do NOT rinse the product before use.
Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not to be used in aquariums with animals used for food production. Do not inhale, do not swallow. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
