Low Nitrate and Phosphate
2021-04-14For the past 18 years, I never actually tested for parameters other than calcium and alkalinity.
I don't have issues that I can tell. The only thing I notice is that the colors of my corals are pale. But they are growing and thriving.
So I bought Nitrate and Phosphate test kits. And to my surprise, they all read zero. I was hoping that they are like very high.
I tried to raise no3 and po4 by feeding more.
I also stopped using skimmer for 3 weeks.
I also stopped flossing.
