Btw the guy from LFS told me that if both no3 and no4 is zero all corals will die off

Hi lenenkie i read the thread and thot u r doing a test on dsb but u also add other nitrate export methods so u end up not knowing whether the dsb works or not. U have thot of gettinh nitrate up agsin and redo the testing?

Not sure what is double sensitive method. Can explain?

I started a post few days back abt my nitrate. Tested using salifert and api at the same time. Salifert 25 api 80

Mine is also made by cra 4ft x 16" (height) × 18" Good workmanship and service and price reasonable

U can buy the tlf reactor new at $80 + or 2nd hand at around $40 to run phosphate media. It works for me

Read from many source that phosphate should not exceed 0.03 otherwise coral will not grow. O.5 is way too high i think

Tks all for the advice. Both my salifert and api are new with exp 2016. I will probably just do water change and forget about testing for nitrate since i wont get a definite answer fro the test kits

API

Salifert...

Hi everyone Im wondering if anyone has this problem as well. I use Salifert test kit and found nitrate quite high at 25 and afraid my prawn and snail may not tahan long. So i bought API just to double confirm. I nearly faint when i see the colour chart. Looks like 80 !!! So how do i know for sure whats the nitrate level in my tank?

Tks Sanjay for your chaeto today. Hope your chaeto's better gene will stop mine from dying out...ha ha ha

Use egg crate
