![]() Sweet! Ya know, if you get on the full ultralith that brown wafer algae will be gone in a matter of months. I've noticed it starting to come back some in my tank and am thinking about starting it up again. Be interesting to see if you can starve it out with the ultraphos though

![]() You can use the full dose of power phos until you reach zero
BUT and this is a big fat but. You must test by doing a heat test otherwise your results mean, well not a lot really. Heat a sample of water to 80 degress C (celcius) allow to cool for 3-5 minutes test in the normal manner By doing this you are releasing bound PO4 molecules back into the water for the test solution to absorb. Once you have zero under heat test conditions you can reduce the amount of phos being used and then look at other regimes such as LNS ultra Lith system. For the review do not add any bio please as this will give false results. Last edited by Aqua-Digital; 01-28-2010 at 02:15 AM. |

![]() so the results are the ultra phos crashed out the P04 rapidly leaving your sysem PO4 neutral?
if so then continue using it at maintenance levels Mega fast results ![]() |
