Magnesium is a major building block for corals and other marine organisms. Some aquarium salts, start off with low magnesium levels, so additional magnesium should be added. The balance between calcium and alkalinity can depend on a proper level of magnesium.

Ocean’s Blend now has two types of phosphate removers, ferric oxide and aluminum oxide. Both will remove phosphates, silicates, organics, and toxins. Ferric oxide is for tanks that have high amounts of phosphate. It can remove as much as 1 ppm of phosphate with only using 1 gram per gal of tank water. Aluminum oxide is best for fine tuning your tank. It removes more silicate than ferric oxide’s media can. Removing silicate will help you slow down or halt brown algae growth letting you spend less time cleaning your glass and more time enjoying your tank. Whichever Oceans Blend phosphate remover you use you will be creating a healthier environment for your inhabitants.
