It is of interest to Marine and Reef Aquariums where its unrivalled capabilities have shown it
to be extremely beneficial in the control of nuisance algaeās and the growth of hard corals.
ROWACARBON
ROWAKALK
A high performance activated carbon for crystal clear water in freshwater and
saltwater aquariums.
Kalkwasser is one of the oldest and most widely established methods of adding
calcium to the reef aquarium.
Within the aquarium activated carbon will remove toxins and yellowing from the water which
will improve the health of your livestock and improve the penetration of light leaving your
aquarium crystal clear.
Kalkwasser translates from the German for limewater and is made by dissolving calcium
hydroxide in water. The resultant fresh solution is strongly alkaline with a pH of 12.4 and
contains a ready supply of both calcium and carbonate ions.
Many low-cost carbon products in the market place are washed in phosphoric acid as a final
stage of their preparation and can release high levels of phosphate into the water.
Kalkwasser also has the benefit of adding hydroxide ions, which react to neutralise organic
acids in the water which would otherwise exhaust the buffering capacity of the system,
thus kalkwasser counters the natural tendency within the aquarium towards falling pH.
Kalkwasser also helps precipitate phosphates from the water.
Constant use of the product is recommended, as its abilities to control nuisance algae is a
major benefit.
In an independent series of tests carried out by the Berlin Technical University on the five
most commonly used phosphate removers at that time, RowaPhos was found to be the
most efficient in removing phosphate from water. Other medias tested reached only to
30-40% of its removal capacity by weight. Additionally, ROWAPhos was found to continue to
remove phosphates at lower concentrations and had a higher maximum holding capacity.
Since these tests many ferric products have been brought out which ride on the
performance of the Rowa product and some even claim to be the same, however
ROWAPhos UNIQUE and its patented manufacturing process cannot be copied.
Now you can feed your fish and not your algae.
In freshwater or salt water aquariums, phosphates will feed nuisance algae which can
overrun plants and expensive corals spoiling the aesthetics of the tank and in extreme
cases killing its inhabitants.
ROWACarbon is guaranteed to have an extremely low phosphate footprint.
ROWAphos is a unique and patented, man-made ferric hydroxide-based media, chemically
engineered for the specific task of removing phosphates, arsenic and silicates from fresh
and salt water. Guaranteed to remove more phosphate than any other media.
The properties of ROWAphos are unmatched within the hobby and should not be confused
with natural materials, based on aluminium oxide, (zeolite) or even other iron-based products
which claim to be the same product from other manufacturers.
Why RowaPhos?
Only Rowa make ROWAPhos and any other iron-based material is simply a copy with a
completely different chemical structure and properties.
ROWAPhos has the largest absorption ability of any phosphate product worldwide and
will not leach back in to the water. This saves the need for immediate removal once the
media is exhausted. The product is easy to use and will improve the water quality wherever
phosphate or silicate is a problem.
