Filstar Phos-Zorb is a special filtration material, packaged for use in all API Filstar XP and Rena XP series canister filters. Phos-Zorb selectively removes phosphate and silicate. Phosphate is a by-product of fish metabolism, decaying organic matter, and is an additive in some water conditioners and filter medias. In saltwater aquariums, excess phosphate lowers the available calcium and magnesium necessary for the growth of hard corals and other invertebrates. Excess phosphates also promotes the growth of unwanted nuisance algae, and can lead to poor coral health and bleaching. Silicates promote the growth of unwanted brown diatiom films.
One pouch treats 55 gallons. Place pouch directly above foam filter pads. Replace pouches every 1-3 months, or as phosphate and silicate levels demand.

Rinse pouch under tap water for several minutes to remove dust and to activate. The activation process will temporarily generate some heat. Replace pouch every 2 months or when testing indicates presence of phosphate or silicate.
Ingredient: activated alumina, 100%
