Re: Phosphate and the Reef Aquarium

Can you decipher that "chemistry geek-speak" into something us dummies can understand?
While I know that phosphates are a problem in our tanks, and are something that comes from almost everything we put in the tank, controlling them becomes problematic for most of us.
I finally learned to soak & rinse all frozen foods in RO/DI water to help remove the phosphates added in the processing, and I know that most flake foods are EXTREMELY high in phosphates, (difficult to soak in RO/DI), but we GOTTA feed the critters we keep...
