Are you still running the algae reactor? how well is that working? Any updates?

*Edit LOL missed some pages on this thread doh!

Hey man! It was good, but my nutrients are so low I couldn’t keep it alive. Tank has been great without it, less maintenance too.

I set up my IM SR60 in December, and with no skimmer or reactors I'm low nutrient too - maybe these tanks are just easy lol. I'm actually thinking about dosing nitrate because increasing fish and coral feeding isn't raising test results. Right now all i have in the rear sump is filter floss, bio media and carbon

Yeah man I had a problem with high nitrates when I first started the tank but now ive been pretty low. Ive just started growing acros, so maybe looking at dosing nitrates too.
