dinoflagellates nitate vs phosphate

[Frans1992]

Hello, i got dinoflagellates. I measured phosphate (0.00) and nitrate(5) can this be the reason,because it's not the redfield ratio? The temperature of my Reef tank wend up last weeks to 26.5 Celcius maybe this is also a reason.

I find it very difficult to hold te redfield ratio. One day phosphate is 0.03 a day later its 0.00 again how can i get this stable.

Don’t pay attention to red field ratios.

You need phosphates to outcompete/poison Dinos. Dose sodium phosphate with this calculator. About 0.05-0.10ppm is a good target.

Here is the calculator (select potassium phosphate): http://www.theplantedtank.co.uk/calculator.htm

The closer to zero with nitr/phos the higher a risk for dinofl.
In my tank i try to keep nitr betw 5 and 8 , phos between 0.05/0.08
With those nrs you have a safe space before going to zero

Even in t nederlands frans , voor mij wat makkelijker .
Je **** bij mruzek in duitsland phycoex bestellen.
Ik heb dat een paar jaar geleden gebruikt ter bestrijding van een flinke uitbraak dynoflagellaten.
Mocht je meer willen weten stuur me dan een pb.

I make a big mistake my no3 is not 5 but 0.5. I forgot to divide by 10 with my test kit
