Ever test for NO3 or PO4? With the 24 fish I'm going to guess the NO3 is non-zero but even just eyeballing the tank I would expect it to be fairly nominal. |
I used the 'Aquarium Systems Fast Test.' It showed a light shade of green which was more than 0 but less than 0.1, so my guess was about 0.75?
I don't see how there can be absolute zero with all the stuff I have in there?
I am guessing the NO3 and PO4 is higher than I want as I do struggle with algae blooms. I was however, pleased with my guess work on the Calcium/Alk.
Tony, I can't tell if your are saying my sps looks good or not so good with the "all that" phrase, but my reef is a definate work in progress and I have a lot to learn. I appreciate your input.
