Hey everybody, I'm looking to switching to a different phos media and I'm curious to hear what is your favorite media to use. I'm currently using Seachem Phosguard, is there anything better that I can use ?

I have used many different phosphate removers Rowa phos isn't bad it is actually good but in my opinion no better than basic gfo you are paying for the name but hey personal reference isn't a right or wrong situation but from my experience works just as well as basic gfo or high cap gfo

i feel when running gfo its not a timed situation its something you must test for that is when you know when it is time to change it

I'm with Kyle so far so good with just biopellets, regular water changes, refugium with chaeto and flame algae, and proper feeding habits. I don't rinse my food either. Po4 on the the colormeter .02 last I had it checked at an SCMAS meeting.

High Capacity GFO from BRS, but I don't run it all the time. I like keeping my PO4 a little higher between 0.02 and 0.04.
