High phosphates-using reactor and can't get them down
I have a 90 gallon mixed reef tank and I have had phosphates as high as .22. The main reason was my R/O water, but I have solved that issue. I now have them at .12 and I have been using a phosban reactor. I used a cup of Rowaphos and in 2 days I have used it up which seems pretty crazy to me. I have 9 fish and about 6 RBTA which I am sure are contributing to the phosphates. I can't reach the anenomes as they are all at the back of my tank. I have been running the reactor for a month but just solved my water problem last week. Should I just be filling up my reactor so that the rowaphos lasts longer? Any suggestions on cheaper GFO to use?
