I am thinking one of two things or even a combination of both…
-maxima clam always sucks up nitrates and phosphates so just par for the course that nitrates are dropping
-by dosing ammonia, it has jump started coral growth and they are using the ammonia and some of the existing nitrates (since alkalinity is also being decreased)
