Good evening reefers
Test results as of tonight 12/15/16:
SG: 1.025
Nitrate: 0 ppm
Phos: 0 ppm
Ammonia: 0 ppm
Calc: 400 ppm
DkH: 12-13
So I am currently dosing Kent Purple Tech to bring up my calcium levels. I am hoping that the high DkH is being caused by that, I am not sure what else could make it that high, any advise on that is appreciated.
Now on to the real question. I have several pieces of macro algae, and a mangrove in my system so Im not surprised I have no Nitrates. I have one piece of SPS currently a Green Stylo. In addition I have a ricorida shroom, aussie pink torch, Rasta Zoa, and a Kenya Tree.
Would it be worth it to dose some nitrates? ie- as I understand it 1-2 ppm can be very good for SPS, however I have one frag of it.... It's happy as is my other coral pieces so should I bother dosing for nitrates, or if it ain't broke dont fix it?
