Description
RowaPhos is a professional-grade filter media engineered to permanently remove phosphate and silicate from both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. This unique ferric hydroxide material binds these unwanted nutrients, effectively starving out nuisance algae that can overrun corals and plants. By controlling phosphate levels, RowaPhos also promotes healthier coral growth, as high phosphates are known to inhibit calcification and the deposition of essential elements like strontium, directly impacting coral skeleton formation.
Developed in Germany for treating municipal water supplies, this patented, man-made material is guaranteed to outperform other phosphate removal products, including natural zeolites or aluminum-based media. Its high binding capacity ensures efficient and long-lasting removal of not just phosphates and silicates, but also arsenic. Unlike some other media, RowaPhos does not leach bound substances back into the aquarium, providing a safe and reliable solution for pristine water quality.
This 5 kg bulk container is ideal for hobbyists with large aquarium systems, multiple tanks, or professional aquarium maintenance companies seeking a cost-effective solution for long-term nutrient control. It is an essential tool for any serious reef aquarist aiming to maintain ultra-low nutrient conditions for thriving SPS corals, or any freshwater aquarist battling persistent algae issues. Use RowaPhos to protect your investment and create a healthier aquatic environment for all inhabitants.
