I have 2 8x8x4 blocks and some of the spheres in the sump of my 200 gallon. I have some but not a lot of formerly live rock in the DT. I added the Marine Pure because I wanted a more minimalist aquascape and more fish swimming room in the DT, and I planned to overstock a little with fish. Even then, I’m now thinking I may have overdone it with the Marine Pure. Phosphates have always read 0 with a Hanna checker and Nitrates currently at 1 and dropping according to testing (have gone from 5 to 2.5 to 1 in a matter of a few weeks—never above 5 no matter how heavy I feed). Have a skimmer too that’s dialed in and Chaeto, which is growing fairly fast, so I know I’m adding a good amount of nutrients.
I’ve got a feeling I’m going to have a heck of a time keeping Nitrates above 0. These blocks work, make no mistake about it. Just don’t overdue it.
