![]() It has been a month now and my tank parameters are:
ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitate 0 PH 8.1-8.2 temp 77.5 I purchased two oscellaris clowns and some frogspawn coral 2 days ago. Now I read a 0.5 ppm in nitate. I assume this is normal as I am adding waste to my system. What should I do? |

![]() I'd just keep an eye on it. If you're that worried, do a waterchange, that should help the situation.

![]() I haven't experienced that myself. Can you provide a little more info? What type of skimmer are you using? And are there any other types of mechanical filtration like sponges or bio balls, etc?
