Last night my husband and I purchased a Salifert Phosphate test kit. This morning we ran the test. We are concerned because the color of blue we saw put the phosphates between 1 and 3 on the chart!

Is it possible that the first reading is inaccurate? If not, how can we get the phosphates down quickly?

Any help is appreciated, and of course, Happy Thanksgiving!

Do some 30% water changes over the next few days will get them down fast just make sure that the salinity and temp is as close as you can get it.

Pick up some PHOSBAN, Since I got some my phosphate levels dropped to nothing.
