RESIN FOR THE ELIMINATION OF PHOSPHATES AND SILICATES
\nPhosphorous (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.\u00a0 High concentrations of phosphates, in particular, intervene positively on the metabolism of green algae, while brown algae proliferate with high concentrations of silicates.<\/p>\n
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,\u00a0 including the decomposition of dead organisms or vegetation, the decomposition of uneaten food, impurities in the original water or the chemical additives used.\u00a0 The reduction in these phosphates (and secondly the silicates) is therefore a fundamental operation for the\u00a0 correct maintenance of an aquarium.<\/p>\n
In most cases, the concentration of phosphates are recommended at 0.05 ppm in order to keep the aquarium free of infesting algae.\u00a0 Lower values, namely 0.01 ppm are necessary for marine and barrier aquariums, in order to allow the correct growth of hard coral.<\/p>\n
The best method of lowering the phosphate and silicate concentration is the treatment of the\u00a0 water with a specific product; REMOVER PO4\u00a0 <\/sub>& SiO2 <\/sub>\u00a0is made up of Aluminium oxide, in a form and dimension optimized to increase the efficiency of phosphate removal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Resin to eliminate Phosphates and Silicates<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8362,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[35,37,34,172],"product_tag":[163,166,920,167,169,377,416,921,922,923],"class_list":{"0":"post-10170","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-fresh-water","7":"product_cat-filter-materials-resins-and-polymers","8":"product_cat-sea-water","9":"product_cat-filter-materials-resins-and-polymers-en","10":"product_tag-acqua-cristallina-en","11":"product_tag-filtro-en","12":"product_tag-filtro-letto-fluido-en","13":"product_tag-fosfati-en","14":"product_tag-materiali-filtranti-en","15":"product_tag-po4-en","16":"product_tag-rimozione-fosfati-en","17":"product_tag-rimozione-silicati-en","18":"product_tag-rowa-phos-en","19":"product_tag-silicati-en","21":"first","22":"instock","23":"taxable","24":"shipping-taxable","25":"purchasable","26":"product-type-variable"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
