Brightwell Phosphate-E to Remove Phosphates in a Reef Tank!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- I finally decided to get serious at reducing my phosphates. I tried everything and it was time to use Brightwell Phosphate E. It worked really well and I am happy with the results. Check out the calculator I used to decide the dosage.
Check it out at the link below:

wtf, why has it taken this long for me to find your chanel? this is amazing content gonna benge all of it today
Thank you soo much! I got tons of videos!
Phosphate E works best when put directly into the skimmer neck. This is the way WWC does it and I've done the same for years.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Just take the cup off and right into the reaction chamber?
Informative video. I just got this and am dosing it with a Peri Pump so I put it in 5 times a day to break up the dosing. Nice to know it works overnight. It is leaves the water so fast I think dosing slowly over time is the way to go to get a consistent readings.
If you dose slowly I would do it in the overflow so it goes directly into the socks and gets taken out by the skimmer. Like 1.1ml a minute pump would be perfect for this application
@@shallowreefing that is exactly where I am dosing👍
Bad ass view from your desk
Tank looks amazing bud
Great job!
Thanks! It really does look good after a water change
Same here buddy im battling the PO4s but its very tough battle because all of the rock and sand are saturated to that point .33 for me too.
Everyone I know has high phosphate levels right now. No idea why either.
hello, are we suppose to dose daily?
I was at 8.0 and now I'm down to 1.8 I don't know what I'm gonna do and cant bring myself to use this stuff. YET. I bought the cheapest salt I could find and just gonna keep changing it and cleaning marine pure and sand bed. I am FOWLR but I love my fish. I would like to ad coral though.
Wow mine is that high too and I'm trying to get it down. I'm also doing a blackout to kill off the turf algae, and I hope to get my tank recovered.
If youre trying to get rid of cyano you should use chemi clean instead it has worked for me everytime!
Water changes do not help lower phosphate, just nitrate.
Your rock has bound phosphate that it immediately releases into the water column to reach equilibrium. This happens within seconds. The lower your phosphate levels, the longer it will take to have a lower equilibrium in the water column. Especially once you are under 0.10
Try diluting the phos-E 1:10 with RODI and slowly drip it or put it on a dosing pump. Check phosphate levels at least every other day.
That’s a cool idea. I’ll look it up!
Dangerous stuff if your not exspearanced gfo miles safer you can take it off line if it goes to low check your ro water ro systems dont filter po4 i added gfo on my ro system aswel as in tank
Hi! Tysm for this information. U do great at explaining phosphate info…! I’ve been searching UA-cam for 2!!! Days about this.. all others. Not so good at devolving the information!😢😢
plz lmk how to understand what my 36 gal tank phosphates should be ? My tanks green n cloudy 😢 so scared to leave this Phos-Orzo hanging in front of my filter for too long also very important to know is what test kit I should get for my 36 gallon tank freshwater that is, to test levels. I have test strips. I do not see the phosphate level covers all things water in my freshwater tank.
Tia. ❤ plz
Advise. Thank you 🙏🏻
I am doing an update on this as we speak. My entire view on phosphates have changed. But a safe number to shoot for is 0.1 ppm phosphate. I use the Hannah checker to measure it. I believe in a more wholistic approach now where there isn’t just one product that will reduce it to where you want. But it’s more of a multi pronged approach. Reduce feeding, increase filtration, use phosphate E, find the source of your food that has the most phosphates in it and then find a substitute for it. My upcoming video will be done in about 2 weeks. I hope it helps!
@@shallowreefing Thank you so much! Hoping to see it!🙏
Great video! My phosphates are currently 0.014 PPB.
What salt are you using?
I’m using HW Reefer right now. I used Brightwell in the past, but now I’m going to switch to Fritz since they had it on sale for a smoking deal. I bought 5 boxes.
Tank size pls
Refugiums aren't really for phosphates really, it works great to reduce nitrate. Have you ever tried carbon dosing? If you have high nitrate and phosphates, that will work best. Lanthium is hard to get it out once it is in.
Not really so. I ran a refugium and tested with hanna and the refugium was so successful it bottomed out my nitrates and phosphates. Tested using hanna checkers. I got dinoflagellates after that. I shut down the refugium shortly after to save the system.
I don't think water changes reduce numbers like that.
Get a Icp test , my Hanna ulr showed phos at 53 = 0.182ppm 🙈 while Icp test come back at 10ppb = 0.031ppm 👍😁
I definitely need to do one soon
Your link to the calculators website isn’t working
I just tried it and it works from my phone by clicking on it. Not sure why it’s not working for you?
Have you noticed any changes or problems with your fish after dosing Phosphate-e?
Nope. Fish are all alive and healthy!
That Hannah tester for phosphates are not that good. The Alkalinity tester is the best
I have the Hannah and the salifert. They are both pretty close to each other
Does not work for fresh water 😢I used a whole bottle in a month in a ten gallon tank with brand new gravel and filled with distilled water was good for a week then off the charts so I tried this stuff no luck 4 platys two filters I feed a little each day it’s gone in one minute. I’m lost
That’s pretty crazy. If I had a 10 gallon tank I would just do water changes. It would be way easier than measuring out all the amounts and testing. Probably way cheaper to do water changes too
Be better off doing small daily WC in a tank that size .
No conversion chart so I don’t have to do the math?
I just use the link below cuz math is hard 😆
80% water change
I’m not gonna change out 160 gallons. lol I only have 60ish gallons of saltwater mixed up on hand. And another 70 of freshwater.
Curious how the levels are now after a few days?
Popped back up to 0.2 😢. It’s definitely not a long term solution. It’s more to get it down and find other means to keep it down. I may end up dosing it once a month to bring it back down. Still running GFO, phosban, and a cheato trash can 😆
@@shallowreefing your not running carbon right? Also, maybe check source water such as ATO for phosphates? Not sure if gfo or phosban would maybe strip the phosphate E out either?
@@JCSReefing yeah I run carbon with it. The fresh water is 0 phosphate and a feshmixed saltwater is 0.02 so super minimal. I think it’s from the sand. I’m just gonna up my water change game and always siphon the sandbed.
@@shallowreefing never used phosphate E but maybe see if carbon could be stripping the remover out a bit of the water column? Just throwing ideas around! GL and happy Reefing! 🤙

Your 15% did nothing sorry to let you know
Consistency is the key. Gotta do those 10% weekly water changes. But if you see in later ICP testing videos I never get any lanthanum in my system. Check out my most recent video on phosphate removal. I think it is better than the single Brightwell phosphate e video.
MicroBacter7 worked for me. From .82 to .05
I’ve never heard of MB 7 lowering phosphates?
Tank size pls
