People think it promotes growth of nuisance algae. Honestly, I no longer subscribe to that. I no longer check my phosphate level. I have been using well water for months now, other than initial diatom bloom (gone now), I don't see any ill effects on algae bloom nor untoward coral response. I know this is going to cause an uproar. BTW, I still have chaetomorpha in my sump.
