I question using this treatment on a nano tank

I use 5 millilitres of lanthanum chloride dissolved into 1 litre of water for treatment on my 300 gallon system.

When I do water changes I change out 55 gallons water at a time.

Lanthanum chloride should be used in conjunction with a 10 micron filter and a skimmer- you don't simply pour it into an aquarium.

to reduce phosphates it would be easier (and safer) to change out a nano tank's entire water volume IMO.
