Coral Essentials – Phosphate Up 100ml

Coral Essentials, Coral Power Phosphate Up is a balanced, inorganic phosphorous source (1,000 ppm). It has been specifically formulated to assist in the uptake of nitrate in aquarium systems. The phosphate based nutrient source, along with naturally occurring bacteria, provide the right environment for nitrification to ensure the uptake of excess dissolved organics.

In ULNS (Ultra Low Nutrient Systems) aquariums corals can have poor colouration and unhealthy if they are starved of available phosphate. Coral Essentials recommends using Coral Power Phosphate Up when you can not achieve the levels of phosphate to maintain a balanced carbon/nitrate/phosphate system. Coral will be more vibrant and colourful when nitrate and phosphate are maintained at correct levels. Coral Essentials recommends running your aquarium at a phosphate level between 0.01ppm and 0.05ppm.
