I just purchased some Phosguard, I'll let you know how well it works once I use it for a few days. I had tried something called Phos-X and it didn't seem to do much for phosphates

I used Phosguard and it worked great. I am actually using it now because I am back to using tap water. My LFS is closed temporarily(I hope).

I've used Phosban before and it worked great for me.

had some bad luck with phosban placed in my canister filter. I was getting false positives for ammonia in hagen tests. so watch out for that. instead of using phosban what ive been told is to find out why you have high phosphates and fix the problem then phosphates will be able to be contolled with your normal water changes.
