Review on 🐠 Phosphate Rx for Aquariums by Blue Life by Trina Piskie

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pros and cons Phosphate Rx

Great product, lowered the phosphate level in my 90g (about 70 gallons with rock extrusion and refugium) from 0.79 to 0.35 in just 21 drops. Be sure to use 10 micron socks and adjust your protein skimmer after adding it to the tank to ensure proper export. However, be sure to remove your socks for washing within about 6-10 hours to prevent phosphates from precipitating back into the water as the additives wear off. I noticed my phosphate levels drop to 0.44 by the time I took my socks off about 12 hours after dosing into the tank. The only downside is that I noticed my yellow cone getting a little sluggish, hiding more than usual and not eating for a day. The next day he was back to normal with his insatiable appetite. My wrasse were fine. The product warns that surgeons and wrasses could experience breathing difficulties. For this reason, in the future I will decrease the dosage by 1/3, rest 2 or 3 days, then dose again if the phosphates are not at the desired level after the first dose.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
