Aquaforest Phosphate Minus

Advanced Media for Phosphate & Silicate Control in Marine Aquariums 🧪🌊

Maintaining crystal-clear, chemically balanced water is essential for a thriving reef aquarium. Aquaforest Phosphate Minus is a highly efficient filtration medium designed to reduce phosphate (PO₄) and silicate (SiO₂) levels in marine aquariums. Excess nutrients from uneaten food, supplements, or natural biological processes can quickly lead to unwanted algae blooms, cyanobacteria growth, and hindered coral development. With its advanced adsorptive technology, Phosphate Minus safely removes these nutrients without affecting fish, corals, or invertebrates — giving hobbyists a reliable solution for pristine reef water.

🌿 Why You’ll Love Aquaforest Phosphate Minus

• ⚡ Effective Phosphate & Silicate Reduction – Rapidly lowers nutrient levels to prevent algae outbreaks.

• 🪸 Safe for All Marine Life – Removes excess nutrients without releasing harmful substances back into the tank.

• 💚 Supports Coral Health – Helps maintain water chemistry essential for coral calcification and vibrant coloration.

• 🔄 Maintains Biological Balance – Stabilizes ionic composition and overall aquarium chemistry.

• 🌊 Perfect for New and Established Aquariums – Prevents phosphate spikes in freshly set tanks and stabilizes mature systems.

• 💧 Flexible Application – Suitable for fluidized media reactors or passive use in filter socks.

⚗️ How It Works

Aquaforest Phosphate Minus employs a unique adsorption matrix to capture and bind phosphate and silicate molecules efficiently. By removing these excess nutrients from the water column, it prevents undesirable green algae growth and cyanobacteria development, creating a stable environment for corals and other sensitive marine life. Unlike some traditional phosphate removers, Phosphate Minus does not leach bound compounds back into the aquarium, ensuring long-lasting nutrient control.

For aquarists aiming for high water quality, this medium is ideal for both new and mature aquariums. In newly established tanks, it helps prevent sudden phosphate accumulation. In mature systems, it reduces elevated PO₄ and silicate levels while supporting consistent chemical balance. The result is a clean, algae-free, and stable reef environment, ready to support thriving coral colonies and invertebrates.

💧 Usage Guidelines

• Dosage: 25–100 ml per 100 L (27 US gal) of aquarium water.

• Place in a media reactor with a recommended water flow of at least 400 L/hr for optimal performance.

• Can also be used passively in filter socks for smaller applications.

• Replace every 4 weeks, or sooner if phosphate levels rise significantly.

• Initial Use Notice: When first added, Phosphate Minus may slightly color the water brown. This is harmless and will disappear naturally. The brown dust is the active phosphate-removing component, so do not rinse before use, as this will reduce efficiency.

🧪 Tips for Best Results

• Use alongside regular water testing to monitor phosphate and silicate levels.

• Combine with consistent water changes and proper feeding practices to prevent nutrient buildup.

• Maintain reactor flow to maximize contact between the medium and aquarium water.

• Ideal for reef tanks containing SPS, LPS, soft corals, and sensitive invertebrates.

🪸 Aquascaping Benefits

By controlling phosphate and silicate, Aquaforest Phosphate Minus supports vibrant coral coloration and prevents nuisance algae that can smother delicate corals or detract from aquascape aesthetics. A stable nutrient environment also encourages healthy coral growth and expansion, allowing reefkeepers to cultivate visually stunning, balanced marine ecosystems.
