The addition of 10 ml per 100 l \/ 26 US-gal. of aquarium water reduces the phosphate concentration by up to 1 mg\/l (ppm). We recommend reducing the phosphate concentration by no more than 0.1 mg\/l (ppm) per day. This means that a maximum of 1 ml of Tropic Marin Elimi-Phos Rapid should be dosed slowly to 100 l \/ 26 US-gal. of water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe recommend the following phosphate concentrations in the aquarium:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul style=\"list-style-type: square;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreshwater: \u0026lt; 0.3–0.5 mg\/l (ppm);\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeawater: 0.02–0.15 mg\/l (ppm);\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReef aquaria: 0.03–0.1 mg\/l (ppm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhosphate reduction treatment is most effective in tanks with a skimmer or a mechanical filter which will completely remove the flocculated phosphate from the system.

In this case, the alkalinity can be raised to its original level using Tropic Marin Liquid Buffer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll organisms need a very small amount of phosphate; 0.00 mg\/l (ppm) is not an advisable level for an aquarium.
