I have to fallow my tank to get rid of ICH. all my fish are in a HT. Right now my nitrate and phosphate are 0. they were always pretty low even WITH fish in the tank. What are some ways i can make sure my acros survive the 73 day fallow period for killing off the ICH in my display? So far I've been staggering feedings every other day. I feed red seas reef energy part a & b , phytoplanton and zooplankton, and once a month i grind up raw oysters and target feed. Also i dose acros power daily. Any other things I'm missing?
 
My question is , is feeding the corals the same as providing nutrients like nitrate and phosphate ?
