Description

The Fluval Phosphate Remover Pads for FX Series Canister Filters is a phosphate resin-infused pad cut for Fluval's FX Series canister filters, which traps floating debris and pulls phosphate out of the water at the same time.

Key Features

  • Phosphate resin infused into a mechanical pad, so one layer does two jobs
  • Cut to fit the FX Series canister filters
  • Phosphate does not harm fish directly — it feeds algae. Removing it treats a cause rather than a symptom
  • Fluval recommends replacing monthly, or when a water test says it is spent
  • For use in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums
  • Made by Fluval, the aquatics brand of Rolf C. Hagen, which has been building aquarium filters since 1975

Using It

  • Rinse it under running water before the first use to wash off dust
  • Put it in after the mechanical stage. Chemical and biological media work on water that has already had the solids taken out of it
  • Never wash biological media in tap water and never replace it all at once. Chlorine kills the bacteria living on it, and changing everything together restarts the cycle
  • A liquid test kit for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate tells you more about a tank than anything you can see

When To Use It

  • Worth trying when algae persists in a tank where light and stocking are already under control
  • Tap water in some areas carries phosphate before it reaches the tank. Test the tap as well as the tank
  • Overfeeding is the other common source. Chemical removal will not outrun a heavy hand with the food
  • Most tanks want 20–30% of the water changed weekly, with the replacement dechlorinated and matched for temperature

Good To Know

  • Resin is finite. A saturated pad restricts flow and does nothing else
  • Phosphate removal alone rarely clears algae. Light duration, stocking and feeding matter more
  • Check the filter model before ordering — the FX pads do not fit the 07 Series
  • A liquid test kit for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate tells you more about a tank than anything you can see
