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...
Hello All,
I have newly established RSM E 170 that is just over a month old. I know this subject has been beat to death but I am very frustrated with the explosion of GHA in my tank. Currently my Phospates are at .08ppm and Nitrates are at 0. These levels have remained constant for a week...
Hey guys. So I currently have a white slim bacterial bloom that I got from dosing nopox. Wondering what you guys recommend to treat it. Currently trying to wet skim and stopped all nopox dosing. Any help will be appreciated
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...
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...
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...
@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 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...
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...
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...
Hi,
I have used lots of the red sea products in the past and been really happy with the results. When I recently set up my reefer 525xl in September I decided to use ATM hot salt but all other product shave been red sea and I am now transitioning to full red sea programme.
The products I am...
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!
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...
