Tropic Marin Phos-Start is formulated to emulate the nutrient supply mechanisms observed in natural coral reef environments. Inspired by the insoluble, particulate excretions of fish or plankton found in the wild, Phos-Start provides corals with phosphate and other essential substances required for optimal health and growth.
- - For use in the first 2 to 3 months during initial cycling phase and in the young aquarium
- - Tropic Marin Phos-Start contains natural marine biopolymers as bacterial food to stimulate the microbiome in the startup phase of the new marine aquarium
- - Calcium and trace elements stimulate and support the growth of coralline algae
- - Included halogen trace elements like iodide, fluoride and bromide, replace elements consumed by increased growth rate of coralline algae and corals
- - Recent studies show that the insoluble, particulate form of these components, are much more efficient for coralline algae and coral growth coloration and care than soluble liquid forms

For use for the first 2 to 3 months during initial cycling phase and in the young aquarium. Phos-Start can be added at any time of the day or night. Since the application clouds the water somewhat, Phos-Start should preferably be dosed around the time the lighting is switched off. The water is particularly clean after the turbidity clears. Half fill a container with approximately 200ml of water from the reef aquarium (reverse osmosis water is not suitable!) and add the calculated amount of Phos-Start. Mix powder and water well by stirring. Pour the suspension into the current of the aquarium and rinse the cup with aquarium water. Start with a daily dosage of 1 ml (small measuring spoon) Phos-Start per 100 US-gal aquarium water. If after four weeks a phosphate concentration between 0.05 ppm and 0.15 ppm is not reached in the aquarium, double the dosage to 2 ml per 100 US-gal. We recommend not to exceed a maximum dosage of 4 ml per 100 US-gal.
Not suitable for human consumption.
