Welcome aboard. Nutrient control is top of my list also. Slow is success. And NEVER let your nitrates or phosphate bottom out. Nastier things than algae can happen if that happens.

Thank you! I’ve been trying to control dinos I believe from nitrates bottoming out so I’ve been dosing nitrates. Once I’m done with the bottle might dose ammonia
