With vinegar dosing how soon should I expect to see a decrease in nitrates? My nitrates average around 20. I would like to get them below 10. I do 15% weekly water changes. Will this lessen the effect of the vinegar? Should I hold off on water changes until I see a drop in nitrates.

How much are you dosing now? If you just started, its going to be a bit before you see results. How many mils are you at? Doing water changes weekly should help this along.

Yea, its gonna be some time before you see those trates come down. Your better off doing larger wc a few days apart to get thwm down now, and then going with a maintenance dose.
