Phosphates enter aquarium water through food and the decomposition of organic matter. However, an uncontrolled increase in phosphate levels creates problems, such as excessive algae growth. Additionally, phosphates in saltwater aquariums can severely impede the excretion of calcium carbonate needed to build the calcareous skeleton of stony corals, thus significantly hindering their growth. On the other hand, with high plant or coral populations and low fish populations, phosphate can also become a deficiency element that must be supplemented.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn natural seawater, the phosphate content is approximately 0.06 mg\/l. However, this value is significantly lower in coral reef areas, where concentrations between 0.01 and 0.02 mg\/l are found. Corresponding values ​​should be aimed for in saltwater aquariums, depending on the specific stock. For freshwater aquariums, a phosphate level of up to 0.4 mg\/l is appropriate, although 1 mg\/l should not be exceeded. A concentration of 0.02 mg\/l is considered sufficient to provide nutrients to aquatic plants.

Nitrite is formed in the first stage of the bacterial process. If nitrification is functioning properly, the nitrite is converted to nitrate in the second stage. In saltwater aquariums, elevated nitrate concentrations disrupt the growth of sensitive corals. A danger of high nitrate levels for all aquariums is that they strongly promote algae growth.
