Brightwell NeoPhos-2 lt Shake product well before using. Do not overdose. Results will be most significant when the system is being dosed with MicroBacter7 on a daily or bi-daily basis.

Balanced Phosphorus Source for Phosphorus-Limited, Low-Nutrient Reef Aquaria

Overview

Used in conjunction with MICROBACTER7 and REEF BIOFUEL or KATALYST, enables
natural nitrogen uptake to take place in systems with inadequate phosphorus content,
lowering ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate concentrations without the use of chemical filtration
media and without resorting to polluting the system with organic material to raise the
phosphorus content.
Recommended for use by advanced reef aquarists maintaining ultra-low nutrient content
systems, only.
May be used with MICROBACTER7, REEF BIOFUEL and/or KATALYST, and NEONITRO
to achieve desired nutrient content in reef aquaria for improved health and coloration of
inhabitants.

1. Using accurate test kits or calibrated digital testing devices, determine phosphate and nitrate concentrations in system. It is assumed that the phosphate concentration in the system is below detectable limits for the testing method being employed. 2. Apply NeoPhos as directed below to attain a phosphate concentration of ~0.02 ppm. 3. Allow 24-hours to elapse; re-test nitrate and phosphate concentrations. If concentrations remain unchanged, then the system is likely carbon-limited. Dose with Reef BioFuel at the rate of 1-ml per 25 US-gallons and allow 24-hours to elapse, then re-test phosphate and nitrate concentrations. Continue daily dosing with Reef BioFuel until phosphate or nitrate concentrations begin to decrease, indicating that the rate of carbon input to the system matches the rate of phosphorus- or nitrogen-input, respectively. 4. If nitrate concentration decreases without addition of Reef BioFuel or use of Katalyst, phosphate concentration in the system will decrease. Continue dosing with NeoPhos to maintain phosphate concentration of ~0.01 – 0.02 ppm until nitrate concentration falls to within desired range (suggested 3 – 5 ppm). Thereafter, dose with NeoPhos as required to maintain desired phosphate and nitrate concentrations. Note: If at any time, dosing with NeoPhos results in a prolonged increase of phosphate concentration without gradual decrease as nitrate is taken up, system is likely carbon-limited (remedied by the application of Reef BioFuel or Katalyst to the system). Refer to Steps 3 and 4, or to our website (NeoPhos “Technical” page). 1 ml NeoPhos will increase the phosphate concentration in 1 US-gallon (~3.8 L) by ~1.2 ppm; 1 drop from plastic bulb pipette (enclosed within bottle) will increase the concentration in the same volume of water by ~0.06 ppm. Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.
