Hello all,
I was wondering who has pushed the limits on high nutrients with a high alkalinity system.
I was trying to follow the RedSea online suggestion for nutrients and heard from fellow reefers that they are much higher because I couldn't keep blastos or acans alive.
Anyways, so as I have been raising my nutrients I realize that I don't have test kits that are in the range anymore so I was just curious how high some of you guys have gone.
What I have in the tank.
monti
stylo
birdsnest
green leather
a few indo torches
lots of zoas
duncan
candy canes
clove poly
frog spawn
mushrooms
3 x maxima clams
1 x deresa clam
Current nutritents
Nitrates - 25 to 50 ppm (Salifert)
Phosphates - 1 ppm
Alkalinity 12-13 dkh
