Brightwell NeoPhos is phosphorus supplement for Ultra-Low Nutrient Reef Aquarium Systems (ULNS). Although the product isn’t “new” it deserves a bit of Reef Builders attention.
For those of you running ULNS systems, NeoPhos is a balanced nitrogen source for these types of environments. Brightwell Aquatics recommends using it in conjunction with with MICROBACTER7 and REEF BIOFUEL or KATALYST. NeoPhos enables, “natural phosphorus uptake to take place in systems with inadequate nitrogen content, lowering phosphate concentration without the use of chemical filtration media and without resorting to polluting the system with organic material to raise the nitrogen content.”
This isn’t something for the average hobbyist looking for a miracle additive for their system, and provides a specific, yet controlled, function in the ULNS system. A 250ml bottle will run around $7.
