I stopped testing except for salinity. I feed my fish 3 - 4 times a day so I struggled with high PO4 and NO3... now I'm blissfully ignorant of what my levels are so no more stressing about it lol

I wish I’d kept to that lol but now I know I really have to get those phosphates in check. Then I can go back to no testing.

Be careful dosing lanthium chloride with your wrasses.

Ooh
Had not seen the dangers and I don’t use filter socks. Have to see about the skimmer method.

My Phosphates are at 0.12-0.14... Nitrates are 75.0+ (sorry, can't figure out how to make the numbers flash so you'll have to understand the+ means flashing - @Projects with Sam no, just no)...
I dose 10 ml vinegar daily (probably should up that?) And 10 ml phosphates daily (probably shouldn't up that).

In my coral tank I’m dosing nitrate and bacto balance and my numbers are finally perfect. About 1.0 N and 0.05 Ph but it was such a battle getting my phosphates down. Stuck at 0.7 forever.

I started. Haven't tested since so I have. O clue how it's going. Also my nitrates were flashing so I don't actually know what they are.
I'm only dosing 10ml and should probably be dosing 30 or 40 ml...

That's the closest I could find. Don't know much about hogfish.
