I think they do, I would run a bag of GFO.Hi!
Can corals feel bad because of phosphates of 1 ppm and NO3 ~100?
Ca, kH, Mg and another micro are normal (I have received ICP test).
Thank you.
They say that NO3 and PO4 need to be reduced at the same time…But GFO reduce PO4 onlyI think they do, I would run a bag of GFO.
I would disagree with that, and it's very safe, and it's a good start.They say that NO3 and PO4 need to be reduced at the same time…But GFO reduce PO4 only
Can I use Phosguard?I would disagree with that, and it's very safe, and it's a good start.
Can I use Phosguard?
I think it is a very good idea, it's very safe, and it's a good start.Phosguard works, yes. The question here isn't if it works, it's if it's a good idea.
Not with somethingIt's probably better to only touch one parameter at a time if possible, though, and the nitrate is a much bigger concern at that level. That's very high nitrates, and only somewhat high phosphates.
Not with something mild like phosguard it;s ok to do combo treatment because you are not adding two knockouts together, of course you have to treat Nitrates, there are many treatments out there, the key is testing and follow up.It's probably better to only touch one parameter at a time if possible, though, and the nitrate is a much bigger concern at that level.

do water changes again twice a week at 25%, keep doing it till it comes down, it will come down, and add a water Clarifier to it, I would not use Cheto in the sump till you have Nitrates in range, then it should maintain it good.Okay. Phosguard combats po4 and what about high nitrogen?
Water changes doesn’t work. I did 2x in a week WC 20%, but no one chance to reduce it.
I’m thinking about algae (cheto) filter in the sump. Will it absorb both nitrates and phosphates at the same time?
Do you know the composition of Chemiclean?Chemiclean isn't going to help anything. You're just dumping poison into the tank instead of fixing the issue that's led to the cyano. Get your tank back in order, and the cyano will sort itself out nicely.
Cyano often occurs because of an imbalance in the tank, or because the water being used to start with is insufficiently pure. Although keeping nutrients at a good level will help beneficial algae beat it out, allowing nutrient levels to run wildly amok is trading one problem for another.
Thank you!It's an antibiotic. It kills cyanobacteria, after all. And even if it was something that killed cyano and only cyano, that won't fix the problem that led to the cyano bloom, which means it'll be back sooner or later.
What's in Chemiclean?
I've just started a dose of Chemiclean as I've found its the best (and only for me) way to get rid of Cyano. While I learn how to prevent Cyano to begin with, I was curious just exactly what this stuff is? I heard "bacteria'? Whatever it is it makes my tank look so amazing right after its...www.reef2reef.com
