Tanks been cycling for a month and a week or two. I have been running and cleaning the skimmer and changing the filter socks / filter media in cups every 4-5 days or when dirty. Lights are still off and have the clean up crew in now for about a week so I started ghost feeding every other day. My nitrates have been around 5-10 and then jumped up this week after ghost feeding to the 10-20 range. Should I slow the ghost feeding down and do heavy water changes to try and get the nitrates lower? I just did my first 10 gallon water change this week but am planning on starting up my DOS this weekend for weekly water changes going forward.
