ok...running BP for around a month (shy a few days)

I had a high nitrate issue (60ppm) which is why I started and lowered them with a full clean on my sump (sucking up junk and waste) and tank and I have been able to get my nitrates to around 15ppm and steady.

If I didn't run GFO I would get high phosphates (I know we all would but this was not normal)

I took out my GFO and was hoping the BP would take over. It seems after getting my Nitrates lower with water changes and cleanup I have also gotten my phosphates low without GFO - 0.05

Currently running 1.5 cups of BP in a 2 fishies 150 reactor

Measured my Phos today and they are 0.05 and nitrates are around 15ppm

Would you say they are kicking in?

Seems like they are working, but maybe not enough yet to lower the nitrates more?

Just looking for some insight...

Thanks again
