According to the Triton test result, I have high Barium in the water which is not ideal for the system. So I use AL99 to observe it to reduce the value. However, my Po4 is low as well, so I need to feed more to cope with reactor now.

Will see if it works out.

Phosphate is low that why you use AL99 Po4 remover to remove barium. 

But if you use AL99 PO4 remover won't it reduce the phosphate even lower than you need to have more heavy feeding.

After which again the you shoot up the PO4. Is it necessary to remove barium? As Barium is part of metal element maybe there other factor to the increase.

Sorry just want to know better.

Yes. You are right.
So while I'm using AL99 to observe barium, I'm feeding more food to fishes to encourage PO4 also. Now I monitor PO4 and No3 every morning before feeding.

If I do one thing, others may go wrong, so trying to balance things out here.

If you are also Triton user, you may know using DETOX may be an option too. But now I have precious Ventrails Anthias in the tank, so I don't want to risk it....

When you had this issue, how did you manage?

Owner: having such a advance system it should had make things easier for you. instead it get you even more paranoid. I couldn't imagine i had to monitor this and that before feeding it just too tedious.

 

Just my opinion.

[Shun]

True. But this is only my first test after revamping my tank. As go along, water should be more stable, and therefore less things to worry. I hope

I wouldn't say it's paranoid. As with any kind of system, it takes time for the system to stable down. IMO this is also a important period to ensure things are properly done, measured and corrected. It's like building a good foundation for the system to last for a Long Long time

Then you should really re-consider this hobby. The pain and disappointment of things dying will be more heart pain then monitoring task that needs to be done

Cause I read up a few system. This system seems to be the most complicated system ever build. Hee.

Hopefully after the daily dosing and monitor everything is back in place.

Sure thanks for your kind feedback. Will seriously consider. 

I bet you had gone thru a lot of heart pain incident, stay strong OK?

I have super high barium too. But is it having an adverse impact on your livestock now? Camping here for updates

[Shun]

After my first Triton test, I have used AL99 hoping to reduce them, but I have not test after that, do not sure it's came down or not.

So far, all the SPS and fishes are doing fine.

Looooong due update on my tank.
Most of the SPS is growing well, and finally start picking up some colours after adding so many fishes..

I still have some algae issue, but dealing with it patiently.

No3 is @ 3ppm
Po4 is @ 0ppm....... maybe can increase feeding..

Barium issue I had before, it is coming down slowly with alternate use of Triton AL99 and Rowa phos.

Did you encounter any loss of coral color without any water change ?

What are the differences you see with your previous system and triton?

Sorry for the late reply.
At some point, yes.
But now colours getting better and better after start giving some food to SPS.
