Ok I got the bio pellet and a reactor to place the biopellets. I did not get the azno3 cos they say will make the fishes drowsy. I am waiting for the result to see if the nitrate level will drop. I do see improvement as the red algae is dying and detached from my sand bed. I also dose bio fuel!
Thanks for your helps Gouldian! I will try the algae scrubber method but where can I get the stuffs? Do you thing I can place it at the overflow before it enters the sump? Should I also get airpump to increase the oxygen levels? Or nitrate reactor?
My reading is always within 25-50. So quite bah cos red algae will bloom suddenly and cover some of my corals and zoos. Also if I feed too little I can see my livestocks are hungry. I have about 20 livestock inside.
I have the tank for almost 3months but the no3 still high in my tank. Wondering what went wrong? How can I control my no3 effectively?
- water change every week 10%
- dose bacteria into the sump weekly
- feed twice a day
-buy no3 and ammonia removal filter
