Blue Life Phosphate Control 1oz
http://www.marinedepot.com/md_viewIt...product=BL2131

Benefits:

Phosphate Control is an amazingly simple and effective product that has
revolutionized the way phosphates are removed from sal****er and freshwater
aquariums. Having a phosphate free aquarium will control the growth of hair
algae and other nuisance algae. In addition, regular use of Phosphate
Control will increase the vitality, color and growth of your aquarium's
inhabitants. Phosphate Control is Veterinarian Approved, and has been used
by leading Public Aquariums, Livestock Wholesalers, Retailers and Hobbyists.

Directions:

Test your aquarium's phosphate level prior to use. It is recommended to
maintain phosphate level below 0.03 ppm (mg/L). Six drops of Phosphate
Control will lower your phosphate by 1 ppm (mg/L) for every 10 gallons (37.9
liters) of water. Do not lower your phosphates more than 1 ppm in a 24-hour
period. For best results, add in high flow areas one drop at a time. Some
temporary cloudiness may occur when adding this product. Cloudiness will
clear up within 24-hours. For accurate results, wait 24-hours before
re-testing your phosphate level. Wait ten minutes before dosing other
supplements. Test regularly and treat as necessary.

Warning:

This product is not intended for human consumption. Keep out of reach of
children. If ingested contact a physician or poison control center
immediately.

This could be some chemical compound which creates insoluble
phosphates which then will be removed by the filters or collect
with detritus on your sump floor... They mention clouding...
So some precipitation of insoluble material occurs for sure.
I think it is similar to iron based phosban but in a liquid form.

You could ask the manufacturer what the active ingredient is
and then it would be more clear how the product works and
what you really add to the water column. This would be important to
avoid known problems caused with aluminium based phosphate removers.

Thought I'd try the seller first...one more to go...


Hello Chris,
Thank you for your e-mail. I am sorry but I do not know the
scientific break down on how exactly this item is effective. I think it
would be best if you were to contact the manufacture and speak with their
technical support team so you can get the information you are looking for.
Blue Life, 888 895 2583.

Thanks again for contacting us. Please let us know if there is anything else
we can do for you.

Please let us know what manufacturer responded
about the active ingredients - that is interesting.

Thanks for the reminder...I just called.
Of course they (sales) wouldn't tell me EXACTLY what it was
but what they say is exactly what you thought it did.

It's some "potent" compound that has an "opening" to accept a phosphate
molecule.
It binds to it and it is skimmed out via protein skimmer. He said you tank
is cloudy for 6 to 8 hours.
He also said to be careful not to lower your Phos more than 1ppm per day
because you can OD this stuff and possibly cause harm to you fish. Glue
their gills up.

I bought a tube, I'll keep yall posted

Tube? 8-)
Is this some kind of solid squizable out of the tube?

There must be an easy chemical test to find out
what is the major ion in the product...
Should be relativelly easy to find iron/aluminium there...
