Hello everyone, I have been using the Pax Bellum N18 for about 3 months now and it does not seem to reduce my nutrients. I clean and remove 1/3 of the cheato about once a week and the nitrates never go below 6.8 and the phosphates stay around .28 ( both tested with hanna checkers). I have a 90-gallon display with a 25-gallon sump. I dose .4 ml of the iron/maganese supplement by pax Bellum throughout the day using a Neptune Dos. I have 13 fish and I feed twice per day using an autofeeder and feeding ring, marine S pellets and algae extreme pellets, and about every other day I do a third feeding of 3 cubes of frozen mysis. Below are my parameters and equipment: Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated
