![]() Well about 10 day into dosing the vinegar up to 10.4 ml per day haven't noticed too much change ( stuff isn't getting worse ) noticed zero algea on the glass haven't had to scrape it in 10 days and still looks clear
skimmate looks darker and seems to be skimming more nastiness out Tested and nitrates are a bit lower at say 25 but i did do big WC so thinking that was what moved it not the carbon dosing yet P04 is a bit lower to changing GFO pretty often its about 0.09 now onward

![]() Well nitrates still sky high say 30-40 I'm doing a 75g water change as we speak and that should be around 50-60% of total water volume then I'm going to head out for the weekend and do another big % water change when I get back on Tuesday and go from there if this don't fix it idk what will
Still dosing the vinegar slowly no problems yet but no results either
