Directions:
Add 1 capful (5ml) of PhosBuster Pro per 10 gallons of aquarium water. Place in the sump, near a powerhead outlet, or any high flow area of the system for rapid dispersal. Some temporary cloudiness will appear. Desired results should be achieved within 72 hours depending upon level of phosphates in the system. Keep all filters running during this time period then rinse or replace filter media. Retest water for phosphates and repeat treatment as needed. Each treatment will remove 1.0 ppm from aquarium water. PhosBuster Pro may be used monthly as part of a preventative maintenance program. Maintenance dose 1 capful (5ml) per 20 gallons.

Important:
Do not use in low hardness freshwater systems (for example, soft water Discus tanks). Before using PhosBuster Pro in a marine aquarium, measure pH (must be at least 8.2) and alkalinity (must be at least 3.5 meq/l or 10dkh). Measure phosphate before using, and do not use if levels are below 0.1 ppm, or if phosphate levels do not need to be below 0.1 ppm for tank occupants. If phosphate is over 5ppm, use half a dose, and add the second half dose at least 24 hours later. If large amounts of green algae are present, remove as much as possible before adding PhosBuster Pro. Use PhosBuster Pro near the end of your light cycle.

The Secret to Avoiding Algae

The single most annoying problem in your aquarium is likely the ongoing battle against algae. Left unchecked, it can cover the glass making viewing impossible. Read how controlling phosphate plays a role in controlling algae in aquariums.

The Benefits of PhosBan Reactors

The presence of algae is a normal part of keeping an aquarium. However, aggressive algae growth is a good indication that your system is out of balance. Use chemical filter media to remove excess nutrients that help algae thrive.
