I've seen ntrates up to almost 50 in my daughters tank and nothing died, just a bit of color loss in the corals and they went back to normal as the trates went down....
Go have a good time!
Wow, thanks, you've made me feel a million times better!
Hoping for the best then! Away we go - leaving this morning now! Wish and pray!
Thanks!
