"Checking phosphate levels" keeps coming up. I have the kit to check ph, ammonia, nitrate, & nitrite - is there a kit to check phosphate? Other than excess algae - what can happen with high levels? Is it harmful to the fish?
It is a separate kit. Try to find a Salifert or Seachem brand. Aquarium phosphate levels are not usually harmful to fish but phosphate and nitrate are fertilizer for algae. http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-09/rhf/index.php http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/ ... 3/chem.htm
