I just bought some Brightwell Aquatics Phosphat-E from JL aquatics. I bought some live rock for my new setup and its leached phosphates into the water where it got to .32 and the GHA was starting to grow.

I believe it is Lanthanum Chloride and it seems to be working well. Have already brought it down to .21 after a quick initial dose. Should have it down around zero within a couple days. I've been dosing it directly into the inlet of the skimmer.

FYI found a lanthanum chloride product called "agent green" by acrylic tank manufacturing. Available at Big Al's. $19, 118ml, treats 1250g @ 1ppm phosphate.

Going to try it on my pukani bin which is currently at ~.75 ppm.

Cheers
