Good to know. But you are not keeping any Acros are you? I am pretty sure Acros do not do great with that high of PO4. But I guess it's all about balance between Alk/Ca/Mg and Po4/no3 and trace elements.

That is correct Ted and I am curious about that myself. I have a few encusting SPS but no acros. After I get my nitrates down closer to 20-30 ppm and PO4 to .5-1 ppm I want to get some green slimer and birdsnest from Kevin at Reef Gallery to see if they can take the higher nutrients. The slimer may actually thrive but be kind of brown instead of the vibrant green. While I have the ponies, this tank will not have access to a skimmer. Once I hook this tank up to the sump with the skimmer I will have more control to lower nitrates and phosphates.Good to know. But you are not keeping any Acros are you?

Dave and I hope to see you at LEAR.Well, I guess we will find out about Acros and PO4/NO3 levels as I am going to the LEAR swap in 2 days and my PO4 is at .2 and my Nitrates are at 2 according to testing his evening. ALK is 7.70.
