Eudrakon P phosphate fertiliser

Phosphate supplementary fertiliser

In contrast to the majority of other aquariums, some heavily planted and illuminated tanks with moderate to low fish populations require a supplement with the basic nutrient phosphorus - P or phosphate - PO.4.

Composition

Contains potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4)

Dosage

1 ml added to 50 litres of aquarium water increases the phosphate content by 0.1 mg/l

The target value is in the range of 0.1 - 0.2 mg/l phosphate. More is rarely necessary and usually only promotes algae growth unnecessarily.
(At the same time, the salt used reduces the potassium content by a slight 0.04 mg/l increased)

Phosphate can also be added as a top dressing. To ~ 0.25 mg/l and only top up again when the level has been at zero for a while.
Aquatic plants are good at storing phosphate, and this method can be used to make life difficult for algae, which are not so good at storing phosphate due to their small size.

If the measured PO4-concentration in the aquarium water before using Eudrakon P has not been detectable for a long time, it is often the case that the first 7 - 14 days of use show a greatly increased consumption. This is normal and is due to the fact that, on the one hand, all plants replenish their depleted phosphate stores and, on the other hand, phosphate is fixed by adsorption on iron hydroxide precipitates in the filter and substrate.

Caution

Adsorber materials that are offered for silicic acid binding (SiO₂) always bind phosphate to a greater or lesser extent!
So if you want to permanently increase the phosphate content of your aquarium water, you have no choice but to remove such silicate adsorbers from the water cycle.

Eudrakon P phosphate fertiliser

In my Pro Scape tank, I always had the problem that the phosphate was permanently too low with my back wall filter and current fish stocking. With P powder I was able to increase the value from "not measurable" to the desired 0.05 with the JBL Sensitive Phosphate Test.

Roots conquer the forest

When designing this aquarium, a friend's photo of a large root forming a kind of subway served as inspiration.
