Seachem has done extensive research, aluminum oxide will only leach if the ph is in the 5's in which case your reef has bigger problems. They detail it on their website.

Please read the article. That is not what highly accurate water testing showed.

I respect Randy and what he has done for the hobby but that article is nearly 15 years old.

I think MarinePure releasing aluminum is likely a bigger problem now and is much more widely reported.

Here is Seachem's report on the matter;

I do realize they are not an independent third party.
