Today I tested the water again and am very happy with the results!

Nitrates - 5-10 (This is easily a reduction of 75 ppm)
Phosphates - 0.25 (maybe a bit less & not far from the source water)
Ph - 7.9 (a bit low but there is no light/photosynthesis in the bucket)

All water samples were taken from the return hose and not the bucket of water. If the Nitrates are just dropping now from the massive 100 and I'm sitting at 5-10 I am very happy. I'll give it another few days and we will see where things are at.

I hope that when I check it again Nitrates are a Zero from the return line and the bucket. The phosphates are easily correctable with Rowaphos & the Ph I can correct with some buffer.

Lets wait and see........
