This is my first ICP test and I wanted to do it just after setting up this tank just to see what baseline I would be getting from using the Red Sea Blue bucket. Kind of a waste but I was curious what would show up.
If anybody could give me some insight on what I should do with this information ,
-since my phosphates are pretty low would a water change make things worse?
- Are the levels that are high even worth worrying about without any corals in the tank?
I'm switching out RO filters and DI today so that should take care of the osmosis portion.
Any help is appreciated , I'll be posting the test results here.
TBS live sand / W live rock in the sump
Dry rock in the display
114.5 gallons total .
Just under 30 days being set up.
Reefmat roller and skimmer.
Thanks for any input
