Did my weekly testing of the water quality.
My question is this:
Do 0 (zero) nitrates have anything to do with my phosphates being super high at 1.0 ?
Been having a issue with phosphates for a few weeks now. Tank has only been up since July 4th and can't seem to get my phosphates down. Added recommended amount of phosguard.
Tank:
32 biocube
Intake basket--
-2 pieces of filter floss with phosguard sandwiched between on first rack
- activated carbon 2nd rack
- chemipure blue 3rd rack
Tunze 9001 skimmer
DIY fuge with chaeto...growing like mad crazy
PH- 8.2
Ammonia- 0
Nitrite-0
Nitrate-0
Calcium-450
PHOSPHATE- 1.0---->YUCK!!
1- 6 line wrasse
1- purple dottyback
1- sleeper goby
And a bunch of CUC
NO CORALS until I figure out Phosphates.
