I ran a bio-pellet reactor for a couple years and it was so efficient at removing both nitrate and phosphate that my corals suffered (but that's a different story).
I can understand how Nitrate is turned into nitrogen gas to export and my tank still does this without bio-pellets (stays at 2 ppm without skimmer, or macro algae), but where does the phosphate go? Now I run GFO, but was may tank making something like Phosphine Gas when I was running bio-pellets?!
