Ya, that's annoying. If it was for humans they would have to list ingredients. Sounds like Lanthanum chloride by the description of what it does and how it looks when it is dosed.

Can you list which canreef sponsors will be carrying the product when they get in? thank you

The Red Coral stores carry it.

The Red Coral Stores have been carrying this product for a while now, works great, I sell out of it so fast that I literally cant keep it on the shelves....

Your question was how is a customer supposed to form a sound decision? Well considering most of us are not pharmasists or marine biologists, we all go by user feedback. Thats how you form a sound decision about nearly everything in this hobby, why should this product be any different.

If it was published every other manufacturer can copy it........ Is that really in the interest of the manufacturer? Hmmm tough choice that one , happy to stick with good client feedback which this product clearly has

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the interest in the product.

Cyano Starver is the first version of the product without the buffer. I changed the name to Foz Down because it also works in freshwater and ponds. I have also added a trace amount of buffer to the Foz Down. The web page for the product will be up shortly.

As with all of my products, they are produced because I use them myself, found them to be effective and reef safe, so I produced them to help hobbyists.

About a year ago I switched from High Capacity Granular Ferric Oxide to the chemical behind Foz Down. I was tired of the monthly expense of 3 lbs of High Capacity GFO to remove phosphate from my coral grow out system. Since I feed heavily it generates a lot of PO4. Since switching to this product I have not had to use any HC GFO. I add the Foz Down directly to the 135 gallon sump and let it settle out. I test for Phosphate using a Lamotte Smart Colorimeter. I have been doing that for over a year.

Since a picture is worth a thousand words here is one of a small section of the grow out tank. I took this pic on the 28th Nov 2011. Check for yourselves how colourful the corals are in a tank with Foz Down used for a year+. Granted I use 400 watt 20k Radium bulbs and have low nitrates.




Most companies do not list ingredients for their special formulas. A couple that quickly come to mind are Kentucky Fried Chicken and Coca Cola. Numerous other foods have a listing called "spices".

Cheers,
Tim

How is a customer to form a sound decision about a product with out knowing whats in it and the science behind how it works.
