I have tested water 3 weeks in a row and Nitrate and Phosphate have been less than or equal to 1 and 0.025 respectively. I decreased the amount of water changes I was doing by 50% and there was no change (was changing about 15% went down to about 7% weekly). . .
I do have nutrient exports in form of refugium and skimmer (one of my tanks has skimmer, the other does not, but does not seem to be making a difference between the 2 tanks. . . but it does make skimate???). I am somewhat afraid (probably irrationally) to get rid of those things, especially the fuge. . .
that takes me to my question. . . get rid of my nutrient export or increase my nutrient import???
