I have no idea how you can call yourself lazy after building that just for phosphate control. Unless of course, you are a ocdslackyoligist.Lol, if you struggle with high phospates and laziness, then this type of reactor helps with both. It makes it easy to remove phosphate and because it is easy, I am able to overcome my laziness and do it!
You just need to becareful to not pull phospahtes down too fast in tanks that have been ran at high phosphates for long periods of time.
As of this morning, my phosphates are 50% lower than they were about a month ago. So now I need to slow down and let the corals catch up with the new reality.
