Elimi-Phos Longlife

Elimi-Phos Longlife granules keep their phosphate removing properties over an, especially long period. This consists of pure, dry iron-hydroxide granules, developed specifically for drinking water preparation. The optimal grain size of the special granules ensures easy, clean handling without bleeding in the aquarium.

Phosphates become so strongly bonded to the ELIMI-PHOS Longlife granules that it will never be released, even after the full absorption capacity of the granules is reached.

Special granules for the highly-efficient removal of phosphates in the aquarium. Pure, dry iron-hydroxide granules. Highest adsorption capacity with a particularly long-lasting effect. Clean and easy handling without bleeding in the aquarium. No deposits of phosphate compounds in the aquarium. Clean handling as granules in practical quick & clean drawstring filter bag.

In addition to the effective removal of phosphates, ELIMI-PHOS Longlife takes the place of activated charcoal and will improve the general water quality in the aquarium. After short time growth conditions for intenerates are improved significantly and undesirable algae growth is restricted.

Place 100 g / 3.5 oz. of ELIMI-PHOS per 200 liters / 50 US-gal. of total aquarium system water volume into the tank and position it in the filter or other area of strong water circulation.

It is always a good idea to make any changes in your aquarium environment slowly. If the organic load of the aquarium is very high, start with 100 g ELIMI-PHOS per 500 liters /130 US-gal. of system volume and slowly increase to the above-recommended maximum. This will give your more delicate plants and animals a gradual introduction to the positive change in water quality.

ELIMI-PHOS can remain in the aquarium even after its absorption capacity has been reached. When the phosphate level in the aquarium starts to increase again, repeat the above procedure with new ELIMI-PHOS. To closely monitor the phosphate level in your aquarium, we recommend using Tropic Marin® Phosphate-Test Professional which will indicate phosphate levels even as low as 0.01 mg/l.
