I am having troble keeping nitrates and phosphate down to low levels. I am currently running a 150 gallon tank with a emporer 400 biowheel, a 12 x 12 skimmer, this is the dimensions for the front resivour and the back that has two filters on it this goes down to my 45 gallon tank set up, hits my bio filters then drips into bio balls then goes through the levels and the bio bags? i believe thats what they are, i change those every 3 months, I have a heater with a digital reader on it in my 45 gallon filter tank on the bottom have it set to 78 i also have an aquatop 500v it has a uv light and is supposed to turn my water into ro water? this also has a bar for circulation in my tank that i have flowing on my corals for circulation and feeding, i have checked my nitrate and phosephate levels and they are still pretty high around 80 for nitrates and 2.0 for phosephate. I have a reef test kit, the nitrate test says that a regular nitrate test reads about 4.4 times lower that the one I have. Regardless I want to get everything down as far as I can to promote my reef. I also use the aquavitro line for my corals( eight four, balance,calcification,fuel, vibrance, ions) I use these as directed on the label. I have 3 t5 aquatic life reff lights. these stay on for8 to 10 hours in the day. I feed my fish 4 domino damsils, 4 yellow tailed damsils, 2 withe and black damsils, yellow tang, unicorn tang, powder blue tang, fire angelfish, brown and white striped eel, 4 clownfish, anenome, purple tiny guy not sure of the name, and black and white gobi, i feed them blood worms, pellets, krill, seaweed, and other frozen foods like silverbacks, i do not feed them all of this every day but i doo feed them once a day, they clear up the food i put in. A month ago I had a red and white striped tang a gray tang a lion fish and 2 fox face angels, they have since died, discoloration, and fraying of the fins. Now that they have passed everything has seemed to calm down. I tried saving them with multiple water changes and the coral seem to be doing fine they are always open but don't seem to be growing much. I just dont want the dieing to start again and I believe it has something to do with the nitrates and phosphate. I want to get this mastered so I can move onto setting up my 700 gallon wall tanks!!!!
