After a Fluco treatment for byropsis in mid summer my No3 ended up this way,,
Just got a Red Sea No3 pro test kit ,,also my normal Salifert to compare results.
I do 10% water changes bi monthly and feed normal.very little fish load ..
all my corals are zoas and palys,,but still would like to lower No3 to around 10..
I run skimmer 1 day a week..
Po4 is .04 or less,,170 gallon system,,3 tanks on one sump.
trying to stay from carbon dosing if I can..
All my corals are zoas/palys,,so I keep the water a little dirty for say..What is your filtration setup? Are you using filter pads, filter socks, or canister filters? Any reason you are not running the skimmer full time or for just part of everyday?

I dont have much algae in the tanks them self..
no pads,socks canisters on my system.
I have 75 tank as a sump/oversized skimmer and a 40 gallon tank on line for a refugium with a bunch of live rock but no Macro algae..
My tanks are 30gal/60gal/80gal/ frag tanks all on one sump.more live rock in the sump,,not much rock at all in any frag tanks.
My No3 is 32 per Red Sea no3 pro test kit and Salifert is very cherry red coloered in the test vial..
I would like to lower it naturally to around 10 or a little less..
