My Hannah checker is reading my phosphate my phosphate at 0.24 ppm. I am looking into using KZ Coral Snow Plus which states that 1 ml lowers phosphate by 8 mg. If I dose 1 ml in a 24 gallon tank (this is actual water volume), how much should i anticipate it would lower by phosphates? I’m having trouble finding the correct calculation. Thanks in advance!

I assume the statement means 1 mL of the product can bind a total of 8 mg of phosphate. For a 24 gallon or approximately 96 liter aquarium, taking away 8 mg from 96 liters would cause an 8 / 96 mg per L decline or about 0.08 ppm.
