Hey everyone,
I’ve had a RS 1200 reefmat since the tank was wet back in July. Ever since I’ve been battling nonexistent nitrates and phosphates. When I say nonexistent I truly mean zero and that’s with a medium sized fish load and multiple feedings per day.
I started to dose for nitrates about two months ago and I’m finally seeing success in my sps. “Not starving them to death” But I was having to dose daily to even get my nitrates to 1.0.
My roller ran out of material about a week ago now and I haven’t changed it but now all of a sudden I actually have nitrates and I don’t have to dose daily to keep them between 1-5 “5 being preferred”
Do I keep the roller mat off? Do I open the side valve and let water through? I’m confused and concerned on what the right course of action is here… anything helps
