Keeping Phosphates Down

fishnugget1 · Jan 28, 2024

I have been using Phosguard, but my large LOBO has receded. I don't know what that is from. Could it be an aluminum irritation?
My phosphates is stable at .08. I was thinking of lanthium chloride on doser or Rowa Phos or Phosban in bag or in reactor.

Any thoughts? I have had trouble with dinos for many months.

Ideas would be appreciated.

Corals in my mixed reef do fine in PO4 0.4 - 0.6 (not 0.04). Not sure I would fret over 0.08 but that might just be me. When I kept lobos I found them to be finicky, one will recede while all the others around it are fine. How is everything else looking?
