Red Sea NO3:PO4-X Algae Management
Red Sea NO3: PO4-X is a unique complex of a number of different carbon molecules and other organic-bonded elements that enable a controlled biological reduction of algae nutrients (nitrate and phosphate) by naturally occurring nutrient reducing bacteria that exist in all aquariums
- Controllable and safe nitrate & phosphate reduction
- Sets and maintains ongoing desired levels of nitrate and phosphate
- Promotes coral growth and coloration
- Reef Safe, no undesirable side effects
- Easy to use, reliable and cost effective

Comparing NO3: PO4-X to other methods of algae nutrient reduction:
Red Sea’s NO3: PO4-X algae management program provides a complete solution because it is controllable and deals with both nitrate and phosphate, in comparison to other methods that are lacking in some part of the process. The following table reviews most of the current methods of dealing with nitrate and or phosphate:
