alternatively, can use henry's goodbye po4...can bring down your phosphate level and make your water clearer and cleaner...

ahaha thanks bro.Lemon (:

whee! I also using ROWA Carbon now. Ehh supposed to buy Rox but I cannot wait cause tank starts to show signs of unhappiness; then about to get my usual Eheim Karbon, a nice bro decided to lelong his ROWA carbon at a good price. Found it hard to turn down so okay! bought and using ROWA Carbon

never heard of Rox andn ever used it before so i don't know and won't comment on it, but i've been a strong user in ROWA products including ROWA phos and ROWA carbon. it's been excellent so far.

Just happen to read thru this thread and though i contribute a little.

I have been using NSW since day one and on a weekly basis, i do a 10% water change (~75litres) so far i'm not affected as yet by it.

Unless my refractometer is screwed, i normally get a reading of 1.023 reading for the NSW. I have not witness any death in my livestocks as yet. Corals seems to be doing fine so far too....

From what i understand, the NSW i bought goes thru quite a fair bit of filtration before its sold to us (again, this is mentioned by the LFS and all i got to see are the filtration ponds) so i am not really that concern yet la....

Unless something significant happens, i think i will stick to this routine. :groupwavereversed:
