Your Nitrate abit high.

I used Brightwell BioFuel and Bacter7 to reduce nitrate as suggested by another reefer.

Works great for me.

Red Sea has the no3:po4 reducer. You should use that. 15ml daily dosing will do the job..

Do you smell what my tank is cooking..

Thanks bro, I am thinking of getting Rowaphos to get rid of my po4.

Hey, merry Xmas.. Just keep a look out on the changes when you put in the new system. Note that if you are using this system, don't do any dosing similar for po4 purpose, it will crash the tank..

Do you smell what my tank is cooking..

When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain

Welcome to this hobby bro redsuns. Salt water, liverocks, sand, add beneficial bac and let tank run for 3-4 weeks with good circulation filtration. Don't do anything except top up with distilled water. Don't look at tank at all! LoL. Then, get good lights and start adding live stocks slowly. In reefing same as many things in life... More haste less fun :) My two cents worth Merry Christmas!
