Ultra Phos is an aluminum-based filter 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.
When water passes through the media, undesirable substances are permanently fixed without being released, allowing precise nutrient control and achieving crystal-clear water.
| Type of Substance | Media Action |
|---|---|
| Phosphates (PO4) | Efficient and safe removal |
| Silicates | Progressive reduction |
| Undesirable Trace Elements | Fixation of barium, arsenic, fluorine, and phosphorus derivatives |
| Organic Pollutants | Permanent fixation without release |
| Water Colorants | Visible water clarification |
| Parameter | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Preparation | Rinse Ultra Phos thoroughly before use |
| Rinsing Behavior | Possible heating of the media |
| Type of Filtration | Recommended dedicated fluidized filter |
| Monitoring | Regular control 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 value is below 0.03 mg/L.
| Indicator | Action to Take |
|---|---|
| Rise in PO4 levels | Replace Ultra Phos with fresh media |
| Yellowing of the media | Normal phenomenon related to phosphorus adsorption |
| More crystalline water | Normal effect of organic pollutant fixation |
