[OctaviousMonk]

Has or does anyone use the phosphate remover from twopartsolution.com?

If so how does it work, is it any good? It is much cheaper then buying phosban if it is any good. I am also thinking the pellets would be good to use with a bag in my nano, but would the pellets work in the reactor on my display tank?

Phosban is Ferric oxide which is what your looking to buy in bulk. But, Phosban is supposed to work better because its engineered to be a better FO over the bulk product.

Synthetic ferric oxide hydroxide granules with an extremely high capacity for adsorbing phosphate from saltwater and freshwater. Also adsorbs silicate, and does not release adsorbed substances. Recommended by Julian Sprung for long-lasting and easy control of phosphate levels on a permanent basis

link to a review on phosban. and explains ferric oxide a little.

About as much as i can help ya. I was told by a few people to not use the bulk product but instead use rowa or phosban.

NJRC buys bulk GFO and it works great, IMHO. It isn't the stuff from 2 part, but works as well as any other I've used.
