AF PO4+ LAB – allows you to accurately correct phosphate levels and quickly restore the desired values.
AF PO4 + is a product intended primarily for aquarium owners with a small number of fish or very intensive filtration. Heavily sterilized water, devoid of nutrients, causes problems with coral dyeing, bleaching and significantly inhibited growth. LPS corals are particularly sensitive to low nutrient levels .
The use of strong filter media, nutrient depressants and skimmers can cause a sudden drop in phosphate levels in the aquarium. Phosphorus is an important element for zooxanthellae – photosynthetic algae that live in symbiosis with corals. With zero phosphorus values in the aquarium, the zooxanthellae simply “starve”. A zero PO4 level in a saltwater aquarium makes it much more difficult to reduce NO3 , so a precise phosphate value correction is necessary.
AF PO4 + is a product of the Aquaforest Lab line created for aquarists who want to have full control over the parameters in their tank. Before use, we recommend that you test both NO3 and PO4 levels and dose them gradually until the desired phosphate level is achieved .
The product in a convenient and safe package, for use in a marine aquarium.
DOSAGE
1ml of AF PO4+ added to 100l of the aquarium water increases the phosphate level by 0,01 mg/l (ppm).
Please remember, that maximum safe daily dose is 1ml per 100 litres of water .
- The OPTIMAL phosphate (PO4) value for a reef aquarium si 0,03-0,05 mg/l (ppm)
Only use when the PO4 level is very low.
Both, deficiency and excess micronutrients will affect aquarium inhabitants, therefore dosage should be selected and modified on the basis of regular Aquaforest Lab water tests.
