Incredible shot. Color you've gotten out of that piece is unreal.

This system is good about processing NO3, must have an aggressive denitrifying bacteria population naturally. It is well stocked with 14 anthias and 3 tangs, amongst a few other random fish. The PO4 is a different story. It can elevate up to 50-60ppb at times. I have to resort to GFO and water changes as I don't have a refugium. I've learned to use hardly any GFO at a time, typically 1/8 cup every month or so.Hey man
That tank looks just spectacular!
very good work and you can be really proud to have such a nice and thriving tank, WOW!
how do you control po4 and no3?
Well, I have the same issue..This system is good about processing NO3, must have an aggressive denitrifying bacteria population naturally.

I'd guess your PO4 is not spiking, but instead your testing is providing different results. Unless you're running a refugium and it's eating up the PO4. Many test kits lack the pinpoint precision needed to produce the super consistent results. I consider my hanna checker as a trend test and remind myself not to lean on exact numbers. I treat many of my test kits in that fashion. Don't chase numbers and instead just remind yourself to stay within ranges, and if adjusting do it gradually. Don't rock the boat, doing anything fast will typically cause problems.Well, I have the same issue..
my po4 spikes at some days to 50ppb and I dont know why...
sometimes I have to dose po4 for about 0.04 a day.
Did you see any issues with spiking / unstable po4?
Well, usually the trend of testing was its being lower the day after. Thats why I did dose po4.I'd guess your PO4 is not spiking, but instead your testing is providing different results.
