No light. It is in a room with no windows in the basement. It has a lid but it doesn't cover the entire top because it has changed shape from the weight of the water.

You could do a few big big water changes. When i cooked all my rock for my 125 I waited for it all to cycle and then the p04 was really high I did a 100% WC on the rock and washed it off quick in the old water put it in new water added a bag go GFO close to the Power head and next week tested again and P04 was gone

For the most part the phosphate is in the water not the rocks

I do weekly 100% water changes. By the end of the week I'm reading at least 1ppm. I'm not running gfo though.
