{"product_id":"eheim-phosphateout","title":"EHEIM phosphateout","description":"Chemical filter media\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDepending on the type, chemical filter media influence the pH value and water hardness (peat) - or reduce the phosphate content and inhibit algae growth (phosphateout).\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe pH value of tap water is usually 7.3 - 7.8, i.e. slightly alkaline. However, most ornamental fish require more acidic water - i.e. a pH value below 7.0. EHEIM TORFpellets lower the pH value and reduce the water hardness.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePhosphates are mainly caused by organic contamination of the aquarium water (food residues, excrement etc.) and are responsible for algae growth. EHEIM phosphateout binds the phosphate and removes it from the water cycle.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEHEIM phosphateout\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eChemically effective phosphate remover inhibits algae growth.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEHEIM phosphateout is a special iron compound for chemical filtering. The iron binds the phosphate, removes it from the water cycle and thus gradually reduces the phosphate content in the aquarium. This inhibits algae growth in particular.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen the phosphate content and thus the algae growth increases again, the filter medium is exhausted and must be replaced.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEHEIM phosphateout is available as granules for external filters and as a foam cartridge for internal filters. It is free from harmful substances and is suitable for fresh and salt water. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhosphate remover inhibits algae growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIron compound, free from harmful substances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for fresh and salt water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be used once (replace when phosphate levels rise again)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor external filters as granules, for internal filters as foam cartridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContents: 390 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EHEIM","offers":[{"title":"390 g","offer_id":48757205238075,"sku":"207350","price":26.9,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0747\/9771\/1675\/files\/eheim-phosphateout.jpg?v=1716283610","url":"https:\/\/www.aquaristik-shop.ch\/en\/products\/eheim-phosphateout","provider":"AQUATANA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
