coming up to about 6 months into my first reef tank and i’m so happy to be able enjoy my corals and nems thriving, when i first got into this hobby i was taught all the wrong things and did extensive research, even lost multiple corals and nems but finally after biting that bullet my tanks finally been stable and doing really well over these past few weeks. i really struggle with high nutrients and i never could figure out why and i just stopped everything and let it take its course. Now i that I run gfo and feed properly i haven’t seeen phosphates over 0.08 for sometime now. Only thing in my tank that’s lacking is the growth i feel like just recently i’ve started seeing corals grow more and propagate and never really noticed that up until now i can’t just wait what this tank looks like from a year from now
