Phosphate
my bio book (human body systems -structure, function, and environment) says the limiting factor is Phosphate (page 124 under ecosystems)
A factor that limits the growth of a population.
"In an ecosystem, a limiting nutrient constrains the growth of organisms much like how a limiting factor, such as food availability or predation, constrains the population growth of a species."

nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus. High levels of dissolved nutrients can lead to excessive algae growth, a phenomenon known as eutrophication, which can have negative impacts on water quality and ecosystem health. Controlling nutrient inputs can help manage algae growth in aquatic systems.

limiting factor
A limiting factor is a factor that restricts the growth, abundance, or distribution of an organism in an ecosystem. Limiting factors can be biotic (such as food availability or predation) or abiotic (such as temperature or water availability). When a limiting factor becomes scarce, it can cause a decrease in population size or limit the overall productivity of an ecosystem.
