So my tank is 6 months old and nitrate has never been above 0 except after the cycle. I have had phosphates in the water, but never nitrates. I have been in the ugly phase for about 6 months and I’m starting to see that the end is near. I know algae consumes nitrates so that’s what I have been thinking the culprit has been but I wanted to see what y’all thought. Should I wait until the ugly phase is over or should I start dosing now? And if so, what product would you recommend?
