Ultra Phos is an aluminum-based filtering media designed for the safe removal of phosphates and silicates in marine aquariums. It also acts on various undesirable trace elements and organic pollutants responsible for water discoloration.
As water passes through the media, unwanted substances permanently bind to Ultra Phos without being released, allowing for precise nutrient control and achieving crystal-clear water.
| Type of Substance | Media Action |
|---|---|
| Phosphates (PO4) | Effective and secure removal |
| Silicates | Progressive reduction |
| Undesirable trace elements | Binding of barium, arsenic, fluoride, and phosphorous derivatives |
| Organic pollutants | Permanent binding without release |
| Water colorants | Visible water clarification |
| Parameter | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Type of filtration | Dedicated fluidized filter recommended |
| Preparation | Rinse thoroughly before use |
| Behavior during rinsing | Possible warming of the media |
| Control | Regular monitoring of PO4 levels |
| Aquarium Volume | Initial Dosage | Maximum Dosage after 14 days |
|---|---|---|
| 200 L | 50 g | 100 g maximum |
Do not exceed 100 g per 200 L of water. It is not recommended to use Ultra Phos when the PO4 concentration is below 0.03 mg/L.
| Indicator | Action to Take |
|---|---|
| Rise in PO4 levels | Replace Ultra Phos with new media |
| Yellowing of the media | Normal phenomenon indicating phosphorus adsorption |
| Clearer water | Normal effect of trapping organic compounds |
