Couple of questions:
What's your favorite way to keep Nitrates in check?
I've started a refugium in one 100g tub. I put in cheato and another unknown macro algae. The cheato and macro have stalled and a red fluff is taking over. I'm using a 6500k bulb. Should I use a lower Kelvin to grow the macros better and faster?
I Don't show any phosphates according to Salifert, but I know how that goes. I have a slight hair algae problem and a large bryopsis problem. I've started with the Tech M, but would rather just reduce phosphates. Do you guys have a specific way to do this that you like?
What foods have the least phosphates?
I have a large skimmer
I have a pellet reactor going with about 700ml
Lots of very small fish
Feed somewhat heavily but have cut down gradually. Keeping Anthias alive.
Use I/O for water
nitrates 30ppm
TDS from r/o is 0 thanks to spectrapure membrane
