Lower Phosphates

[boomper]

My phosphates are high, what is the best method for lowering them?

I had good luck lowering them using ROWAphos in a Phosban reactor. Any hair algae I had at the start of using the product was gone after a month, though all of my SPS corals browned out during the use of the product. If you decide to use this production, be forewarned at how it could potentially affect your corals (if you keep any).
The natural method is to have a refugium with macro algaes that consume the phosphates.
