My Tank Thread
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!Today readings in the 10000L tank! ;Bookworm
KH - 6,25 at lunch - Salifert
KH - 6,10 in the afternoon
NO3 - 2,5 ppm - Salifert
PO4 - 0 ppm - Hanna LR
Now things start to speed up after the heat period when some lights were turned off or down.
Nitrate was about 6 ppm a month ago. Phosphate has been low for a while(a coworker kind of overdosed GFO this summer..;Happy).
KH has dropped from 7dKH to 6 the last weeks. Increased Core7 and the dose from the calcium reactor, so now it's stable at least. I think KH is slowly raising, but we'll see next week. Never any big changes Friday afternoon!
My guess is that the corals has started to grow again, taking up nutrients and KH. At the same time I've dosed some carbon source in the frag tank with the NPS to promote some bacteria growth. Not much, but maybe that carbon source has driven the phosphate really low the last week, I think some of the corals looks a bit dull in colour.
So lowered to 1/5 of the carbon source now. I still want some in that frag tank.
Now it's time for weekend!
