I am still looking for that sweet spot I guess. It changes so fast with water going in and out so much I prefer to keep my levels at the medium levels in case any swing one way or the other.
You ordered a couple sweet acros. Great that they are doing good.

Update on the NP pellets:

I am find that my nitrates are undetectable but it hasn't improved my coloring. One thing I am amazed about is that tank requires 1/10th the cleaning maintenance now. I rarely get any green film on the glass.

I was talking to Kien (thanks) the other day and he brought up a good point about running carbon along with the pellets. Since the pellets it seems will not remove the chemical discharge from SPS that it makes sense to utilize carbon for that purpose.

I am so far happy with their results.
