Well, it's the inorganic nutrients we can test for. Organic would be food before it breaks down. So, if you feel you have sufficient bioload (ie fish) you've covered nitrates. The other would be phosphates like particulate coral foods or allowing frozen and pellet foods to decompose. Understanding that, you'll also need to know that high po4 can drive nitrates low and high nitrates can drive po4 low. Keepin that in mind and you should know when and what to feed.Cool, nice successful story, my first dino attack was similar to yours now.
I think I'm gonna turn off/on my refugium lights for a few days to see if that helps, maybe I have inorganic phosphates and nitrates but no organic and that's why my dinos are still kicking around.
I'll try to do the same I did last time I fought with dinos, on my list are live sand bed from another tank.
