Wow, I didn't know it was that bad! Thanks for posting the test results! It's this very reason that I "wash" my sand very, very well before using it. I never thought of checking the phosphate with a test kit. Good call.

How often are you replacing the RO/DI it's soaking in?

Every 24 Hrs I will test the water it has been soaking in and then change the R/O water and leave for another 24hrs to soak.
It maybe quicker to keep rinsing the substrate every few hours; but i don't plan on adding it to the tank for a while so thought i would take my time Plus the ALK is reading way above 30dkh and i was interested to see how quickly this would drop. By no means a scientific experiment though  S.
