I am having cycle after cycle of cyano issues and my tank is totally out of balance. It’s 2 years old, 120g and about a year ago, it was beautiful and issue free. Now I have lost 75% of my corals, entire tank is covered in bubble algae, all my coralline died, and I’m just about ready to give up.
My phosphate is consistently 0, while my nitrates are around 30-40 (Hanna testers for both). I do monthly 30% water changes. Tried dosing phosphate and that led to another cyano explosion and caused the bubble algae to take over as well. Can someone help me understand what is consuming all my phosphate? And where to go from here?
I dose nopox, but hardly any - like 2ml a day. Everything else is stable.
