Yes, 100 times yes! Although, to be quite honest, I don't truly know what the pellets are doing with Phosphate reduction. All that I have to go on is an assumption that phosphates are kept at bay by the bacteria that is keeping the nitrates at bay. Testing for phosphates with the colour matching test kits always reads a colourless result for me. Anyway, I too hate rowaphos. I suppose it did its job but I hated replacing it monthly. It was such a mess and a chore! Dumping that last batch of rowaphos out prior to installing the pellets gave me such a huge sense of liberation

I have not tried the Bio pellets yet. If I remember correctly phosphate is some sort of fertilizer that algae thrives on. My thinking is that the bacteria that the Bio pellets product creating mulm does too. Useful Bacteria mulm. Newsagents algae.

So when nitrates drop to zero.. what's a guy to do?? Buy more fish!

Borbonius Anthias:


Sunburst Anthias:


Hawaiian Flame Wrasse (female): [I have a male too but have not yet been able to capture a photo of him worth posting. He is fast and skittish!]


Okay so this guy (the tailspot) isn't new but he wanted in on the photo action. Such a great personality this little guy.



For all you fish stocking po-po out there, don't fret! I have re-homed some of my fish to another tank! :-D

1/3 tank shot. Note the not so little Borbon in the bottom right corner



Just realized that the tank has just past the 6 month mark.. maybe I'll write up a full tank update. If I can be bothered..
