Nitrates 100+ppm, Need help with Dosing Vodka

[Ashish Patel]

IMO, most foods represent a pretty even balance of N and P, since they reflect the sorts of biomolecules needed by cells.

Thanks Randy, your research and posts are top notch. I am not going to put that much stock in the shrimp but will use little less than I was on my last batch. Last thing I have to try is just build a large ATS but it seems the P dosing is helping. I have a Millie and Pink lemonade clearly loving the tank and showing very good PE at night. These 2 corals where dormant for practically 2 years and that is a good sign NO3 is likely dropping per day. My skimmer is producing 5 gallons of wet skimmate per day so I have to replenish that daily. which i am hoping is just removing

This Mille and Pink Leomonade are very happy. I know it's not fake bc the night time PE is great. I know this is a great sign but still wish more acros follow along.

Last time I checked NO3 it was still 100ppm+. I stopped feeding shrimp 2 weeks ago so interested if I see a difference.

I build this ATS and very happy with it so far. The pump is a bit too strong so going to have to find something more energy efficient

Also its time for the Orange Shoulder to go. He knocks over nearly every new frag and even larger chunks of acros from encrusted base. I found a local buyer who's ready but I just have to figure out how to catch this monster. It stinks but will be better for my system that's been a challenge dealing with Nutrients. I am also getting rid of 4 of the large turbo snails. I suspect this alone will start helping me lower NO3

A fish trap will be your best friend. I highly recommend this one:

Good one. I was thinking about building one but not sure I have the patients. I just want something that is big enough since this fish is almost the size of the largest option
