Seachem PhosGuard is a highly porous, bead-shaped aquarium filter media that rapidly removes phosphate and silicate from marine and freshwater aquariums. It is designed for high capacity and optimum water flow, outperforming competing products. This 250 mL (8.45 fl oz) container is suitable for all stages of aquarium keeping. PhosGuard does not release removed phosphate back into the water, helping to prevent algae growth and enhance coral health. It is not recommended for phosphate-buffered freshwater aquariums.
For optimal results, use over 500 ml of PhosGuard for every 150 gallons of water. PhosGuard can be used continuously or intermittently. If used intermittently, it should be left in the filter for at least 4 days for each use. Reviewers note its effectiveness in reducing nuisance algae and improving water clarity, leading to healthier aquatic environments.
Compared to local Indian alternatives, Seachem PhosGuard offers superior capacity and efficiency for phosphate and silicate removal. While local options may require more frequent replacement, PhosGuard's advanced formulation ensures longer-lasting performance. All customs duties and GST are included in the price, with delivery via ExpressBox tracked shipping within 12-14 days.
