Alrighty then, readings almost a week since dosing with NeoNitro. With these numbers - do I dose? Nitrate has dropped and may keep dropping like it did before until it bottoms out. The 40 gallon tank has a few fish in it. 170 is still without fish, but will be getting a few small fish on Friday. (Aquacultured small, so they'll be like an inch! So not a lot of bioload yet.)

40 Gallon
Nitrate - 3.7
Phosphate - 0.59

Alk - 6.9
Calcium - 390
Magnesium - 1300
pH - 8.0

170 Gallon
Nitrate - 4.6
Phosphate - 0.09

Alk - 8.7
Calcium - 389
Magnesium - 1360
pH - 8.2

I'm also going to start doing All For Reef. Don't have a doser set up yet, so will just be adding the full amount at once until a dose is set up. (6 ml for 40 gallons and 38 ml for 170 gallons)
