Rowaphos time life

How long does the phosphate remover Rowaphos last for? Ive had it in my media filter for about 2 months now.

i would think it depends on how much phosphate you have in your tank, i wonder...........is there any way to re juvinate rowaphos?

how much time depends on the level of phosphate, and other factors. In my case I keep rowa max 3 months then change - but would see this as an upper limit.

If you've lots of phosphate in your tank then it can be as liitle as a matter of hours and it's 'full'. Depends entirely on how much is there to start with.
