Elimi-Phos Rapid is a highly effective, lanthanum-based liquid treatment designed for extremely rapid and significant phosphate reduction in both saltwater and freshwater aquariums. It works by quickly binding phosphates and precipitating them from the water column, which is crucial for preventing issues like nuisance algae outbreaks and promoting robust coral health and growth. This solution is particularly valuable during new aquarium break-in, rock curing, and cycling phases where phosphate levels can accumulate rapidly.

This 500 ml bottle provides a potent formula for quickly lowering phosphate concentrations to optimal ranges, typically between 0.02 ppm and 0.15 ppm for general aquariums, and a stricter 0.02 ppm to 0.1 ppm for reef environments. The lanthanum-based composition ensures extremely rapid removal of even high phosphate levels, effectively reducing them to a target of 0.2 – 0.4 mg/l (ppm) quickly. Its liquid form allows for convenient and precise dosing, either manually or via a dosing pump, enabling targeted reductions as needed.

Elimi-Phos Rapid is an essential product for reef aquarists and freshwater enthusiasts who are battling elevated phosphate levels that contribute to aggressive algae growth and hinder the vitality of corals and other aquatic life. It is especially beneficial for those establishing new tanks or curing live rock, as it proactively prevents phosphate accumulation before it can cause problems. Established aquariums experiencing phosphate spikes from various sources will also greatly benefit from its controlled, rapid reduction capabilities, helping to restore and maintain optimal water chemistry for a thriving and pristine aquatic environment.
