Fluval Lab Series Phosphate Remover

[slitwin]

Has anyone used Fluval Lab Series Phosphate Remover? What do you think? is it worth it or is there something better to remove phosphates?

Thanks

ive never used it but i believe it an ion exchange resin. ion exchange resins are not very effective in sea water. i would look into something like this http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merc...roduct_Code=WM-PHOSAR-HC&Category_Code=warner

Thanks for that information. I don't have a reactor. Should I get one? Is it more effective than putting it in the media bag?

reactors are more efficient then a bag in the sump because the water is forced through the media. with a bag in the sump the water tends to go around the media.
