I'd like to build up a self sufficient population of phytoplankton in my 65 to support a suitable pod population for two (or more!) dragonets.
We have chaeto in the refugium right now that is keeping the nitrate and phosphate at practically 0, regardless of how much we feed and how little we change the water.
Is it possible to maintain a continuous population of phytoplankton without removing the chaeto and or introducing so much additional nitrogen that it sparks a nuisance algae bloom?
