25 plus years salt water aquarist, one year plus a couple months working with corals. For the past few months I thought I was struggling with High Nitrates and it turns out that my test were being altered by not using RODI. It turns out after trying everything from large water changes to dosing NoPoX 3ml per day, that my Nitrates were actually sitting at zero. I added a DI canister to my system last week and stopped dosing NoPoX. I also started to feed my tank Reef Energy A+B and Reef Roids again (I had stopped for a few months). Here are my current parameters.
dKH: 9.8, Ca: 420, MG: 1425, NO3: 0.00, PH: 8.1, PO4: 0.03, Salinity: 35 ppt, Temp: 77.8
I know that the NoPoX has my tank at zero Nitrates, how long do you think it will take to get my Nitrates to start registering? Is it possible to have Phosphate at 0.03 and Nitrates at 0.00?
