Help: SPS bleaching and STN

If you are paying for your water, then you might want to consider a RO unit that is low on water usage like this one, which will waste no water, so cost much less at the end:

If you are using tap water I would start with using RO. This is probably your problem.

Also going to try some BRS GFO in a media bag, in my filter sock. But I'll put it on the output of my protein skimmer.

I really want to get a way from carbon dosing entirely. It's scaring me off.

I am thinking it was a combination of ALK ( initially at 7 and then I slowly raised it to 8), and bad water quality. Lesson learnt, listen to people's advice as they have been there, done that.
