English aside, this "quote" does not support the proposition that phos builds up due to poop getting stuck in the coarse sand beds.

The fact that the results were "qualitatively similar" suggests that some other mechanism is involved. If it was fish poop in sandbeds one would expect that there would be a difference in the live animal systems vs measured dosing systems
