Does anyone have any experience with salifert's phosphate eliminator? What is the best phosphate sponge or eliminator available?

Phosban IMO, there is one more that is ok....i forget what it is......all of the rest leach it right back out into your water. I havent heard of saliferts however......

That's not true Rowa doesn't either!

Rowa phos, hands down. Expensive but worth it

Put it in a phosban reactor and its even better

What I have read is Rowa being one of the best, I have never used it. Just read about it.

I had a bad hair algae problem. I bought a phosban reactor and Rowa. 18 hrs later the hair algae was gone

Rowa-phos hands down...
