A temporary clouding of the aquarium water is normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eStart with a daily dosage of 1 ml (small measuring spoon) of Phos-Feed per 200 l of aquarium water. To do this, half fill a container with approx. 200 ml of reverse osmosis water and add the Phos-Feed. Mix the powder and water well by stirring. Pour the suspension into the aquarium's current and rinse the cup with aquarium water. If after four weeks the phosphate concentration in the aquarium has not reached between 0.05 mg\/l and 0.15 mg\/l, double the dosage to 2 ml (large measuring spoon) per 200 l. The maximum dosage of 4 ml per 200 l should not be exceeded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Suspended Phos feed can also be added via a dosing pump.
