Two Little Fishies PhosBan. Largest adsorption capacity of any phosphate filtering media. Ferric oxide hydroxide-based granules also adsorb organics and other pollutants.
Two Little Fishies Phosban
PhosBan from Two Little Fishies is a favored chemical filter media because it will not leach substances back into your aquarium.
Largest adsorption capacity of any phosphate filtering media. Ferric oxide hydroxide-based granules also adsorb organics and other pollutants.
Use just like activated carbon; filter bag included. Non-toxic and lasts several months in typical aquariums. Great for saltwater and freshwater aquariums.
For best results, use with a TLF Phosban Reactor 150 or 550.
PhosBan can be rinsed briefly before use, but since it is friable, do NOT stir the granules, which would pulverise them.
Put PhosBan in a tightly-packed media bag or between two layers of fine filter floss in any kind of flow-through filter or filter chamber so that the water is directed through it diffusely.
PhosBan is best used in an up-flow filter such as the PhosBan Reactor, but the flow must be reduced sufficiently to prevent the granules from tumbling, which would grind them into powder.
