RESIN FOR THE ELIMINATION OF PHOSPHATES AND SILICATES
Phosphorous (P) is an element which is present in aquariums in various forms, but mainly as a botanical phosphate, which constitutes a primary source of nutrition for algae. High concentrations of phosphates, in particular, intervene positively on the metabolism of green algae, while brown algae proliferate with high concentrations of silicates.
Besides producing the undesired effect of aiding the proliferation of algae, high levels of phosphate can inhibit the calcification process in coral and other invertebrates. The possible causes of the increase in phosphate in an aquarium are various, including the decomposition of dead organisms or vegetation, the decomposition of uneaten food, impurities in the original water or the chemical additives used. The reduction in these phosphates (and secondly the silicates) is therefore a fundamental operation for the correct maintenance of an aquarium.
In most cases, the concentration of phosphates are recommended at 0.05 ppm in order to keep the aquarium free of infesting algae. Lower values, namely 0.01 ppm are necessary for marine and barrier aquariums, in order to allow the correct growth of hard coral.
The best method of lowering the phosphate and silicate concentration is the treatment of the water with a specific product; REMOVER PO4 & SiO2 is made up of Aluminium oxide, in a form and dimension optimized to increase the efficiency of phosphate removal.
Activated granular aluminium (Al2O3 > 90%)
- 100% effective in removing Silicates and Phosphates;
- Acts in a few days;
- DOES NOT release aluminum or other unwanted substances;
- Optimized shape and size to increase phosphate removal efficiency.
- Helps the calcification processes of corals and other invertebrates;
- Reduces unwanted algae growth.
Insert REMOVER PO4 & SiO2 in its net and rinse with reverse-osmosis water to eliminate residues and dust (the product may liberate plenty of heat the first time it comes into contact with water: use protective gloves and/or place the product in a container or cup for the first rinse). After which place this net in the filter or Sump, ensuring that there is a strong water flow. It is even more effective if used in a filter with fluid bed or in a phosphate reactor.
REMOVER PO4 & SiO2 , as all absorbent material, is characterized by an maximum absorption capacity and must, therefore, be changed regularly if the phosphate level remains unaltered or lowers very gradually. For this reason it is important to test the phosphate concentration level in the aquarium regularly. Aluminium oxide and Iron hydroxide cannot be regenerated in any way, as phosphates and silicates are removed from the water through the formation of stable complexes on the surface. Therefore, REMOVER PO4 & SiO2 , once used, cannot be re-utilized.
Keep in a cool and dry place. Keep the product out of the reach of children.

non mi è chiara la descrizione sull’utilozzo per un acquario di 220 litri quanto remover inserire

Buon giorno,
dipende da quanto sono alti i fosfati nel tuo acquario, puoi optare per un dosaggio 100g in 100 Lt, se molto alti, oppure 100g in 200 Lt se sono in un valore intorno a 0,5 ppm. nella pagina del prodotto c’è una tabella di calcolo. saluti

Prodotto ottimo, da fosfati a 1,5 mg/lt e’ sceso con un solo dosaggio di 250 gr in 250 LT in 6 giorni arrivando 0,10 mg/LT, ora ho fatto altri 3 cambi sempre di 250 gr in 18 giorni e non accenna ad abbassarsi cosa può essere?
Fosfati misurati con test nyos
Fosfati assenti in osmosi
Utilizzato in letto fluido
Acqua salata
Grazie

Buon giorno,
quando i fosfati hanno valori così bassi, e sempre meglio rivolgerse ad un laboratorio di analisi per verificare la veridicità del test.
grazie, saluti

BUONGIORNO, MA IN LETTO DI FLUIDO VA LASCIATO NELLA CALZA?
GRAZIE
