Phosphates

[ric maniac]

I would buy your own blender as stated above. There are so many things that you could put in to your food. Or you could grow your own brine

I would do that if I had the time.

How do you grow Brine ?
I'll just go with the formula one products for now i'm no expert but I will get that blender one of these days

just get some rods food and dislove it in your tank water first it had squid, octopus brine myris and kelp, garlic, welll lets just say it have everything you need, but go easy on it because it is highly concentrated.

throwing a bag of phosguard or phosban in your sump will soak em up. test for PO4 while doing this, and as soon as they drop, pull the media out.
there shouldn't be detectable phosphates. there must be an underlying issue. phosphates of that level won't kill fish or motile inverts. difficult corals might show some signs of stress though.

yes, po4 is the chemical term for phosphates
to grow your own brine, you need to buy brine eggs and a hatching station. if your roommate wont let you use her blender, i doubt she'll let you keep a bubbling station of hatching invertebrates laying around somewhere.
