so I have tried vinegar, and am now using NoPox, and I am sitting at 32.2 for nitrates. My po4 is at 0.08 which typically would be good. I am dosing 20cc into 250 (figured it's close...300 gallons with 200 sand and 200 rocks) plus sump
skimmer is running and collecting, pH is 8.5
alk is 8.1
everything seems fine that way, but I cannot get them down. Should I just get my po4 up, and run this thing higher? things look "ok" some color but not like it should be. I am worried about them being that high, but maybe I should be a bit more aggressive on the NoPox, and just feed more nori?
I have 17 fish in this tank, and only 4 are large....I feed 2 frozen cubes a day. typically mysis or Rods.
any advice?
Thanks so much
