PO4 PHOSPHATE TEST SALTWATER – Reagent for Measuring Phosphates in Marine Aquariums
The PO4 PHOSPHATE TEST SALTWATER is a must-have reagent for accurately measuring phosphate (PO4) levels in marine aquariums. Phosphates originate from fish and invertebrate waste, uneaten food, and organic decay. While PO4 is not directly toxic to fish, excess levels can cause dangerous algal blooms that damage coral health.
Elevated phosphate interferes with coral calcification and photosynthesis by promoting algae growth that competes for space and light. To maintain a stable reef environment, phosphate levels should be kept near 0 mg/L. This test offers high accuracy and is essential for reef keepers using nutrient control systems.
Key features:
-
Accurate phosphate (PO4) detection in saltwater

Helps prevent coral suffocation from algae overgrowth
-
Maintains nutrient balance in marine tanks
-
Ideal for reef tanks and sensitive marine systems
-
Easy-to-use and reliable testing
Why choose the PO4 PHOSPHATE TEST SALTWATER:
-
Provides control over key nutrient levels
-
Supports healthy coral growth and coloration
-
Essential for managing phosphate removal strategies
-
Simple operation for consistent reef monitoring
