keke.. change 10% of water dun expect the NO3 lvl to drop drastically...this i learnt from another SRC reefer.. for example ur NO3 is 50ppm before 10% change.. assuming 10% of water contributes to 10% of No3, that means u take away only 10% mah. so ur NO3 lvl still 45ppm...keke

maybe u wan to try AZ-NO3.....

[tazperlin]

AZ-NO3 ? wat is that

[pingpong]

AZ-NO3 ? wat is that

bro,

0.50ppm of NO3 is very very small case just leave it and measure again in weekend . dun worry ya .

using sulphur to lower nitrate require media like hydrocarbonate to neutralize the acid. will not be a prob if u have a calcium reactor... just feed ur effluent of your denitrator to ur CR will be fine.

keke... eye shoot bird liao... i tot i saw 25-50ppm.. warao 0.25-0.50ppm say 'DIE'? i know someone(s) 100ppm okay!!! keke........

[tazperlin]

sorry is 25 to 50 not 0.25 to 0.50

i tot for coral NO3 MUST get 0ppm is the best water for coral or the coral will not open very nice

yup in NSW, i believe is about 0ppm.. but in a confined environment, it is very difficult to achieve 0ppm. when nitrate is about 20ppm and below, i would consider a healthy reef.

unless u are talking about SPS, that is another issue.

if u wanna see a significant drop in nitrate, add more coral and remove more fishes.

keke...pls let me know when you are selling the pair of True Per or the PBT..

oh ya, the newer Deltec denitrifier is not using sulphur..

Especially true with SPS... my NO3 used to be around 10ppm and my Rainbow Monti's base turned brown... now NO3 is 0ppm (for 3 weeks) and the base turn back to its original intense blue... just an example based on my personal observation

Try not to overstock your tank with too many fishes and feed moderately

[tazperlin]

thanks for dinner bro. nice having u over as guest

no problem bro nice to meet u too

[tazperlin]

two day ago i just bought this Deltec NF511 from Reef depot

[tazperlin]

dont know this nitrate filter how long will take effect ? to bring down my no3

[jervismun]

Wow new toy! I actually have a similar piece (bought from a reefer) in the store room... waiting for the right time to fireup Do post more pix to show us how it looks like in your setup... what is your NO3 right now?
