I probably should try a different species. The budget doesn't allow it right now. The bacon bits might work on a larger species. Once the food is digested, that is when the fish spew phosphates into the water and they need to be cleaned up or the water is discharged into the environment.

I have been able to use the same water for periods in excess of six months, and it is likely that other nutrients (or toxins) would build up and cause the problems, not the phosphate.


I also have no access to a source of phosphate impaired water to recycle, which restrains me from dumping said (nano) toxins after they have built up. A friend of mine has/had a patent on "heavy metal" reduction, which could be used in that event. That patent is almost 20 years old.
