Seaklear Phosphate Remover

[steve9]

There is a commercial version of PHOSFREE in my pool store
any body have a idea what its strength is,

I'm not sure if the "for pools" version is the commercial relabled or the CR version.

The CR version is just a 1/3 strength version of the commercial.
You can look at the bottle, if it says it removes 3,000 ppb per quart, it is the CR version. If it says it removes 9,000 ppb per quart it is the commercial version.

I see so it was relabled. I did notice some "for pools" stated 9000 ppb (same as "Commercial") so I was a bit confused. Thanks.

Is that seaklear stuff lanthanum chloride?

 

[OsiViper]

Yea. I believe the seaklear stuff is like 99.9% LaCl3. Not totally positive though. It's the one I see most people using though.

 

[Drae]

I just read up on it. Interesting.

 

[animalkingdom]

its not 99.9% LaCl3. LaCl3 is a salt. SeKlear a salt solution of LaCl3 and water. The only difference between the two types is one is 33% as strong as the other if I remember right.

For treating dry rock either should work just fine
