I now need to dose over .1 ppm PO4 spread throughout the day to keep any nutrients in my water. I dose every 8 hours up to .04 and by the next dose it is basically bottomed out again. Nitrate only needs to be dosed every few days to keep it 3-5 ppm. If I don't dose, my zoas pale out and begin melting within a few days. How do I break this cycle? I feel like I'm just feeding the algae but if I stop my corals die on me.
