The hype about aluminium based phosphate removers leaching phosphate was due to a bad batch of seachem phosguard released in the 1990s. Such information is already outdated and should only be trusted for that period. Many successful german aquarist trust Ultraphos.

Ultraphos is manufactured in such a way that it does not leach aluminium nor phosphates, and will change color from white to dark yellow when exhausted. Ultraphos removes phosphates and dissolved organics very fast, so it is important to follow the dosage instructions or you could clean your water too fast and have corals that will exhibit symptoms of light/nutrient shock. Ultraphos will also remove excess levels of iron which cause "unexplained" algae growth.

The only things that Ultraphos will not do is fluidize as it is quite heavy nor will it disintegrate over time and enter your tank.

Always something more important than fish.

Here's some links for you to come up with your own conclusions.

http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/336987-gfo-phosguard-iron-aluminum-no-bueno/ (clam lovers take note)

If aluminium based absorbers were that bad, german brands like FM & Triton will not be carrying these products at all.

For the data released on aluminium leaching, I have no comments. The only way I would trust such information is based on a independent analysis by a laboratory doing comparisons. For all you know both products may be the same.
