Looks like the nitrate level raised a bit, probably between 2-2.5 ppm. The test is visibly more pinkish today. I'm good with this level. If it continues to raise tomorrow, then I'll probably lower the dosage to 30 ml daily.

Nice process and following along. I used to dose nitrate but after a miscalculation, I had to do a massive water change to get things back. Now I just feed like crazy but have a batch of spectracide just in case. Which test kit are you using? I like the redsea but the 10 min wait time kills me. I even use a magnetic stirrer to help but the wait makes it hard to test it more frequently than weekly.
I know a local guy that dose potassium, iodide, iodine and strontium. He pulls out some amazing color on his sps which makes me want to try dosing them, but im afraid it might get expensive real quick with a 400+ system.Have you tried sourcing potassium iodide? I heard about it from watching a video somewhere. Worth looking into. If I have to dose nitrates again, I'm staying at 5 ppm now, I'm going to toss spectracide and go with this stuff.
Thank you! I expect a few more drawings with my name from you [emoji23][emoji13]Very nice!!
