Hey All,
About 7 weeks into my first tank journey, did a water change last night and ran all the parameters:
I was searching around for how to maintain or reduce my phosphate. There seems to be a lot of mixed information and seems there are a ton of variables. My question is should I be super concerned with the phos level right now, and should that prevent me from adding some first beginner corals? If you recommend me lowering it before adding in corals, what method would you suggest? Pic of the clowns for fun.
