Overview
Legend Phosphat™
Phosphat is one of the main three macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphat, potassium: NPK) required by plants and can often become the limiting factor to growth in a flourishing system. Legend Phosphat™ adds the important macronutrient phosphate to your tank. Your plants can draw on plentiful resources again and will thank you with lush growth. Unlike competing products that mix nitrate and phosphate in a fixed ratio, Legend Phosphat™ (being nitrate free) allows you to dose phosphorus according to the needs of your plants without the risk of overdosing nitrates. When used as directed, Legend Phosphat™ will enhance and accelerate the growth of aquatic plants without enhancing algae growth.
Weekly water changes of 25% to 50% are recommendable. The dosage can be raised or lowered depending on your requirements. If your tank water shows high readings of phosphate from the start, this fertilizer is not suitable for your aquarium, though. It has been designed to prevent the accumulation of large concentrations of macronutrients. If high levels of phosphate occur, please reduce the dosage.
For maximum benefit, use with Legend Nitrogen™ and Legend Potassium™.

Recomandation
- In inert substrate tanks, do not allow the phosphate concentration to fall below 0.2 ppm
- Take into consideration that all active soils absorb the phosphate, leaving water column values of 0.1-0.2 ppm
- Do not contaminate the solution with aquarium water
- Do not ingest and keep out of reach of children and pets
- Store at room temperature. Protect from light, heat and frost
- For aquarium use only
