Hi

All good, except your Nitrate, this rise can only be caused by

A, Over feeding relative while you were away
B, Under dosing while away.

To stop this instability you need to add to the mix the Lith rock which we discussed in PM

To get the nitrate under control again from this, do as follows

2 drops of bio
1ML of Bak
1ML of Min-S (i said 2ml in pm ignore that)

Stop feeding Ultra clam until nitrates back down

Ok here is your first ultra Lith dosing

1/4 of a tub of Ultra lith for two weeks with the following dosing

Ultra Bio - 4 drops a day
Ultra Bak - 2ml a day
Ultra Min-S - 2ml a day

After two weeks I will let you know what to do next

Important - Get your DKH down to 7.0 and turn all skimmers off for 2 hours after dosing
