Zero Nitrates + .16 phosphate +Nopox dossing = dying zoas

[Tray333]

I know many have probably addressed this issue many times before, but I have not the time to read every post. Is there an over the counter product that anyone may suggest that I can add to increase my nitrates?

You could just dump some extra fish food in your tank, should help kick them up a little or if you have a protein slimmer shut it off for 2 days

if thier opening up, you can spot feed them the juice of frozen foods.

I keep my nitrates at 15 and it seems to keep my lps and zoas happy

That!

And stop with the NoPOx already!

The problem is likely to be a phosphate problem at least as much as a nitrate problem.

I would do this before adding KNO3.....but do get some KNO3 to have on the side. Handy stuff!

+2 on the spectracide. In the meantime I would quit the nopox dosing as mcarroll said
