    So where do you try to keep your Nitrates and Phospates?

    I used to chase phosphate and nitrate and found it was very difficult and wast of time and money. To me bacteria are the key to an healthier sps tank. I dosed vinegar and found it very easy to control. Nitrates and phosphates will balanced themselves out once the bacteria in the tank stabilized.

    War w/dinos… advice on a possible tank reboot or upgrade

    in General Discussion

    I just got rid of all the dyno and redslime in my tank. Took me about a month to beat it, and now it's been 1 week with no sign of them coming back.

     

    First I used chemiclean and then 30% water change. Dyno and redslime are 70% gone at this point but they still growing because of high phosphate and nitrate. I added kz zeozym (this stuff neutralize bacteria and help skimmer export more waste) daily for about 1 week. In this time I also dose vinegar and used lanthanum chloride to remove phosphate. My tank is now all clear.

    You can also look into vodka dosing, just set up your dosing pump to a vodka bottle and let it run. No reactor to clean, no media to fill, and don't have to shake it everyday. Just sit back, relax, take a sip of vodka and enjoy your reef .

    Sorry...had a few problems with the tank, but it's now back to normal again.  Here is the update.
