Phosban in a new setup

[cracker]

I recently re/ setup a 200 galllon tank. I started this November last year.Most of the LR (3/4) was cooked & cured for 4 months. New sand, new bulbs cured rock etc. The tank has been up for a month now. There was a lite cycle. The water tests are all in order.The few corals & 3 fish seem to be doing fine.My question is Should I start running Phosban now, or wait a while considering it is a new setup?. I don't want phosphates to get out of hand like last time. Thanks for Your opinions!

Don't wait! Its much easier to prevent the algae, then to fight it off once its got a foot hold.

Yes get it started ASAP

Starting phosphate media prevents the phosphate problems early on. +1
