I began carbon dosing about 1 week ago in my 100 gallon mixed reef. I started with a 3ml dose daily and did not dose yesterday because water is really clear and looks like nitrates and phosphates have gotten low.
I haven't measured in forever but api tests were reading under 10 nitrates and phosphates were .25 consistently for months. I was having gha problems so started dosing n0p0x.
I'm writing bc everything looks good in tank except zoas. They have color but they are not as full. I am only dosing 3mL. Not sure how to move forward with dosing the nopox, can I move to every other day? Do I cut off the skimmer? My corals seem to have reacted positively to the nopox but not sure if it's too much of a shock at once . Any advice appreciated.
