Hey everyone, I wanted to get everyone’s thoughts on what I’m dealing with.
I’m struggling with extremely high PO4 readings.
my Hanna ULR read out of bounds .9 so I bought a Fluval tester (not great) and it confirmed what the Hanna was reading.

My question is this, what are the negative impacts oh high PO4? I’m not having any sort of algae problem at all (maybe some minimal but very negligible). I have GSP, candies, shrooms, Zoas and a hammer all of which seem fine with maybe the exception of the Zoas not being as vibrant as before.

Anyone deal with what is considered extremely high PO4 readings in the past?
