Hello
I have a problem with redfield chart which indicates best no3 /po4 ratios
According to the chart if as admitted no3 level should be around 5ppm then po4 would reach huge levels somewhere between 0.3 and 0.5 which is ten times the also admitted value of 0.04 of po4
I have algae issues because I feel that it is due to the bad ratio in my tank
I am raising on purpose the po4 level which was always between 0.02 and 0.04 knowing that my no3 level is 5ppm
Is it wrong
please help and give me the best value of no3 and po4
thank you
