Lanthanum Chloride

Query ko lang po if anyone in RP had any experience or knowledge in using lanthanum cloride in removing p04 on Marine Aquarium. TIA.

I have no experience with LaCl3 but some friends and I were researching about them way back 2009 lalo sina vsnph na may pure NPS (azooxanthellate) tank dati. Unfortunately, walang locally available na source niyan.

Anyway, here are some nice reads:

may pdf file ako about lanthanum.. originally, pangkidney talaga siya para ma-bind ang phospate and also use sa pool, marami ng nageksperimento nito sa reef aquarium with promising results! Dahil nga mura ito, marami ang nagtatangkang gawing alternative ito sa commercial phospate binders like gfo. But unfortunately, lanthanum is not available locally. Kung meron man, baka limited lang ang lanthanum sa medical use.
