DIY Phosphate Reactor

[tomowilson]

Bought 2 10" water filter canisters intending for my DIY RO/DI unit project but did not proceed. Not wanting it to be wasted, I DIYed a phosphate reactor instead. I am testing it using PhosGuard now and will share more if it is working.

Cheers.

Sounds like a good project. Remember to benchmark your phosphate level before you start. After which, your tank husbandry pattern should remain constant throughout the project.

nothing really innovative though . Will need to do some modifications to improve the efficiency. Any recommendation for a cost effective phosphate test kit? I am using API now and find the reading is not granular enough. (e.g. 0 and next color code is for 0.25). My current reading is somewhere between 0 - 0.25.
