GFO is the safest and easiest way to help out IMO since you are already changing water.
There is a sponsor on the boards that sells it wholesale. Or you can purchase it from a store under brand names like Rowaphos or Phosban. Last edited by FitoPharmer; 10-14-2012 at 06:37 PM.

I used Phosbuster Pro to knock my phosphates down (in addition to changing my ROWAphos). But! I dosed very conservatively: 1/4 dose or less, two days apart, and I watched my phosphate readings closely. It is one of those things that seems to trigger tank crashes when a whole dose is used at once: especially when a big reduction is required.
