so there are many ways to lower it but I would keep it exactly like you have it but you can useSo 0.1 Po4 is ok? Should I lower it? And what can I do to lower it?
The short answer is NO it is not too much.Hi, my phosphate is at 0.1 but the corals are wide open and very happy, I’m not sure if 0.1 Po4 is too much can someone please help me?
I have lots of lps I only have about 3 small sps fragsWhat type of corals? I have softies and a hammer coral that were growing with phosphate levels at 1ppm....not that I'm advocating that. My nitrates were around 30 ppm at the time as well. Interesting thing was when I dropped my levels over several months my hammer didn't like the change.
0.1 is fine, if it gets above 0.2, maybe add some nopox, 3 ml per 100 gallons per day. You can go up to 6 ml per day after a week if necessary.I have lots of lps I only have about 3 small sps frags
No, but you need to be running a skimmer to remove the bacteria with nutrients the nopox grows.Would I have to do a water change after I’m done with the dose?
YesNopox is a carbon source. Bacteria use it with nitrate and phosphate to reproduce, trapping the nitrates and phosphates inmore bacteria. To remove, the bacteria need to be skimmed out.
Well said.relax. do nothing. like @fish farmer I don't advocate it but my PO4 is 1.0-1.4 and NO3 is 40/60.
there are some corals I can't keep because of the parameters, but the ones I do keep are growing explosively.
