- Size: 500g

- Water Type: Freshwater and marine
Is this for you?
✔️ Good if:
- You are managing phosphate levels
- You have algae driven by excess nutrients

Why this product?
Seachem PhosNet is a granular ferric oxide media designed to remove phosphate and silicate from aquarium water.
Phosphate control can help reduce algae pressure when combined with good feeding, water changes, and lighting management.
It should be used as part of a broader maintenance strategy rather than as a magic algae cure.
Common mistakes
- Using without testing phosphate
- Overusing chemical media unnecessarily
- Ignoring root causes of algae
- Placing media where water flow is poor
- Not replacing exhausted media
Use made simple
- Place in a fine media bag
- Rinse before use if required
- Position in strong filter flow
- Monitor phosphate levels
- Replace when exhausted
Pair with
- Seachem media bags
- Canister or sump filtration
- Phosphate test kits
- Algae management routines
- Activated carbon or Purigen where appropriate
Important Notes
- Test phosphate where possible
- Use in adequate water flow
- Do not rely on media alone for algae control
- Follow manufacturer directions
Phosphate removers help, but they do not solve bad habits. Overfeeding and poor maintenance will beat any media eventually.
