Description

AquaFX High Capacity Phos-Blaster GFO (6.5lbs)

Delivers double the phosphate-binding strength of standard granular ferric oxide, completely shutting down algae breakouts while accelerating coral skeletal growth. This premium, high-density media resists tumbling degradation and dust breakdown, packing immense filtering power into your reef setup. While it can be deployed in a standard media bag for passive filtration, using a fluidized media reactor maximizes water contact and ensures the absolute best nutrient export performance.

Product Key Features

Double the Strength: Binds nearly twice the volume of target phosphates compared to standard iron-based media.
Rapid Algae Suppression: Starves out nuisance hair, bubble, and film algae by locking away dissolved organic nutrients.
Ultra-Dense Composition: Hardened pellets resist fracturing into fine dust and help prevent media clumping.
Fluidized Reactor Ready: Highly durable structure specifically designed to handle a gentle fluidizing tumble without disintegrating.
Versatile Deployment: Can be used in a mesh bag for tight spaces, though a dedicated reactor provides the ultimate efficiency.

Recommended Reactor & Bag Options

Fluidized Media Reactor: The absolute best option. Forces water evenly through the entire media bed to completely eliminate dead zones and maximize phosphate absorption.
Optional Mesh Bag Use: If a reactor is not available, the media can be placed in a fine 200-micron mesh bag with a plastic, rustproof zipper.
Flexible Sump Placement: When using a bag, it must be molded directly into high-velocity baffles or overflow drops to force passive water flow through the granules.

Quick Use Guidelines

Reactor Loading: Fill your fluidizing reactor chamber with the required dosage of high-capacity GFO.
Initial Rinse: Direct the initial reactor output water into a separate bucket until the water runs completely clear to flush away transport dust.
Tumble Adjustment: Adjust the flow valve so the surface of the GFO bed has a very gentle, slow boil or simmer. Do not tumble aggressively.
Exhaustion Lifespan: Switch out your media every 4 to 8 weeks, or immediately when aquarium phosphate tests begin to climb.
