I have a 150 with big sump and active Refugium. My skimmer is set up but pulls nothing and is just used for gas exchange. The tank has been set up for about 6 weeks.
My problem is I still have zero nitrate (salifert) and zero Phosphates (Hanna UL). Is this actually a problem I should address by adding liquid nitrate and phosphate? I have done this before but it makes me nervous. I feed what I consider heavy now. My fish load is not high. I have 9 small fish in a 150.
I added a pic just cause.
