Hi all, I'm 3.5 mth into reefing and loving every moment, so far delt with aiptasia, bubble algae, flukes.
The tank is 220 imp gal, it probably looks older than 3.5 months because I've acquired some live stock and corals from friends who have lost interest inthe hobby .
I'm sort of at a cross roads now, my tank is stable nothing changes much, but some parameters are high.
I'm dosing ati essentials 2 part 15ml/day
Sump, Skimmer, bio blocks, floss and refugium ( cheato) UV
Temp 24.3c
Red sea test kits
Ph 8.....8.2
Salinity 1025
Alkalinity 9
Amm 0
Nitrite 0.2
Nitrate 30 .....50
Phos 0.12
Calcium 360
Mag 1600
Water changed 20% last weekend, nothing has changed.
I would just like some input, to fine tune things especially nitrates and phosphate.
I realise I've a lot of stock in the tank and have progressed a lot quicker than I would have liked, but it was hard to say no to freebies lol
