Rowa Phos is recognized as one of the most effective phosphate removal resins on the market. It effectively eliminates phosphates, which are the main culprits in the proliferation of algae and cyanobacteria, in both freshwater and marine reef aquariums.
Its regular use is particularly recommended for large volumes and aquariums with high nutrient loads.
Rowa Phos efficiently adsorbs phosphates, as well as silicates and arsenic. Once saturated, the resin does not release any undesirable compounds back into the water, ensuring complete safety for fish, corals, and invertebrates.
Longevity tests have demonstrated the absence of release even after several years of continuous use.
100 ml treat up to 800 L of freshwater or 400 L of saltwater.
250 ml treat up to 2000 L of freshwater or 1000 L of saltwater.
500 ml treat up to 4000 L of freshwater or 2000 L of saltwater.
1000 ml treat up to 8000 L of freshwater or 4000 L of saltwater.
To maintain phosphate levels close to zero, the resin should be used continuously and renewed on average every 1 to 2 months, depending on the organic load and nutrient concentration of the aquarium.
In reef aquariums, it is advised to keep phosphates below 0.015 ppm. In freshwater aquariums, slightly higher values can be tolerated.
Never wash the resin.
Keep the resin constantly wet, as it becomes ineffective if it dries out.
Place the resin in a sock or between two layers of filter wool.
Preferably use in a forced flow or high flow area.
Never pour the resin directly into the aquarium without a container.
In a fluidized filter, provide a layer of filter wool at the exit to retain fine particles.
It is recommended to regularly measure phosphate levels to control the resin's effectiveness. When values rise, the resin should be replaced.
Note that many standard phosphate tests cannot detect the very low concentrations required in reef aquariums.
