    NOPOX withdrawls / flatworms

    Hello. I have a 120 gallon spsd tank (there is a thread if you want to see it) and its about 6 mo old. I'm running triton method, but I have been feeding a little heavy lately and as a result have had slightly accelerated diatoms on the sand and a need to clean the glass daily. I ran NOPOX for...

    GFO w/ Red Sea No3Po4X

    So I heard GFO bag like this can strip Po4? What if I use this in conjunction with active carbon dosing, the likes of No3Po4x? OK or BAD idea?

    Brown Hair Algae or Cyano or WHAT IS THIS ???

    Ive been battling algae in a certain spot in my tank since I started this bad boy (6 months ago not including 3 month cycle). I call it algae, but I have absolutely no idea what this stuff is. Allow me to explain the best I can: This nuisance began growing after my initial cycle (I cycled...

    How I Turbo Charged NOPOX

    So asside from following the basic instructions that come with NOPOX, I did one extra thing. When my PO4 hit 0ppm, instead of stopping NOPOX dosing, I dosed in Brightwell NeoPhos right before dosing NOPOX. I doubt the order matters. I wasnt sure how much to dose of the NeoPhos so I started at...

    Need some reassurance

    as the title says I need some reassurance I’m doing the right thing. 65 gal system about 3 months old. No fish and a hand full of snails. The only 2 corals I have is a frag of gsp which is doing great and a green mushroom. I just switch to Radion XR30 g4 pro and am running the color pop program...

    Downgrade from NoPox to Vinegar: do I need to start from minimum dosing?

    @Randy Holmes-Farley Do I need to start over from scratch if I am converting from NoPox to Vinegar? I can't remember how much is my dosing (ml) for NoPox ... I think 6ml per day if my memory serves me well ... I set and now forgot about it LOL but I can see the dosing container is thinning...

    I need alternatives to NOPOX dosing, please....

    I have had some success with nopox but I'm starting to feel that I do not have the same control over nitrates that I may have with a bio-pellet reactor or even an algae scrubber or even a zeolite reactor. Also, time is a limiting factor and I do worry about putting nopox on a doser ---- I...

    What is this pink slime (after Carbon dosing)? What should I be doing?

    The No3 has now come down to almost undetectable. It was approx. 40 ppm and has taken its course over few months time. I have now cut down the dose to half and perhaps I'm still overdosing as I found pink slime all over my sump. I don't know if I'm supposed to leave it there or pull it out...

    NO3:PO4 -X (NOPOX) and Seachem Purigen compatibility.

    To combat a surge of nitrates I have recently been dosing NOPOX. So far I have been seeing results, but also remembered I currently and running purigen in a reactor. Will these 2 compounds clash at all? I am seeing results, but I would like to min/max this process and not strip any chemistry...

    Is Red Sea NO3:PO4-X compatible with Chemi-Pure Blue?

    Thinking about getting some Red Sea NO3-PO4-X to use in my tank. I currently have a Chemi-Pure Blue bag in my media basket. If I use both of these products will they cancel each other by working against each other. Just curious. thanks for any help!

    NoPox question (or Carbon Dosing)

    Approx. 1.5 years back: No3 level was off the range ... super RED; from memory, it's above 120 ppm :mad: After adding some Siporax media in my sump and NoPox dosing for considerable amount of time, the No3 level has dropped to undetected level (0 ppm). :D Approx. 6 months back: Stopped dosing...
