Algae consumes most of it.Just wanted to let you know that the ato is testing 0 for phosphates ! How do you control your phosphates ?
I’ll pick up so rowaphos tomorrow to drop these and dose small amounts of neonitro to raise nitrates.Algae consumes most of it.
believe it or not I mounted the coral backwards .-. LolTank is looking good! That golden hammer really pops.
Tank is looking good!! Not seeing any fish in your pictures. I thought you had a couple?I’ll check it out now I just tested nitrates and there 0 they were 5 a couple days again
Why not give the Chemi Elite a day or 2 to see if it brings your PO4 down? Did you buy the container that has the little made up pouches?Update the chemi elite reduces nitrates too. Now I gotta store it. And buy something the rowaphos
Yes I still have 2 clowns there cowards unless I put my hand in the tank. I have the chemi pure elite in there still I’m gonna test again when I get home to see if it reduced it.Tank is looking good!! Not seeing any fish in your pictures. I thought you had a couple?

That’s crazy! Test your fresh mixed salt? What salt are you using? Do you make your own RODI?I have 1.29 phosphates
I clean portions every weekDo you clean the sand bed?
I’m using regular Instant oceans salt , I tested my RODI water yesterday and it came back all 0 I do store my Hanna vials with rodi water untill next use. I tested 3 times in a row and all came back with same numbers. It’s my fault really I skipped a water change and that week I feeding reef candy/ reef roids those 2 weeksThat’s crazy!

Hanna testers can be finicky too. it’s recommended to rinse with rodi and some even store the vials in ro between uses. Absolutely no smudges. Try to put the vial in the same way every time also.
I think reefroids brings up more phosphates then anything. But I still don’t know the ratio that wellyou would think that would bring nitrates up ?

Everything is okay but can be better. My Kenya closed and some of my zoas closed at the the LPS seem opened but not as much as they should be I didn’t have a good test kit untill this week so it’s hard to tell what my phosphate were this whole timeNumbers aside, how is everything doing in there? Usually the best test kit.
As I’ve mentioned in my thread phosphate is the one parameter that is all over the map for me too and I don’t know why either.Everything is okay but can be better.

I know it leeches from the rocks and such. But mine was do to heavy feeding coral food. Trying new things, … I can’t win 3 months ago I was dealing with 100+ nitrates and now I’m dealing with high phosphates. It’s not bad I can still fix it. I’ll test when I get home see the number if it’s still high with the chemi pure elite I’m removing it and doing phosphate -e once I get the levels down I’ll maintain it with rowaphosAs I’ve mentioned in my thread phosphate is the one parameter that is all over the map for me too and I don’t know why either.
If corals are happy, all is well.Numbers aside, how is everything doing in there? Usually the best test kit.
