Hello everyone, I culture my own phyto, it's an equal part mix of nannaclhoropsis, tetraselmis, Rhodamonas, and Isochrysis ( cultured separately of course). I've been dosing pretty heavy about 64oz a day on a 240 gallon mixed reef and was wondering if there are any negative implications with doing so. To my understanding it's supposed to lower nitrates and phosphates but I'm noticing a steady climb, any recommendations on the dosage amount??

Thank you 👍
