Abarger16 Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Well, I done goofed I had a pretty big nitrate spike awhile back, so I put in a golfball sized chaeto and things have been great since. My nitrates and phos floated down to the levels im used to 16ppm nitrate and .04 phos. Well I COMPLETELY neglected to trim the cheato and it grew to fill the entire acclimation box and then I noticed that it died back significantly over night I pulled it out and checked my nutrients and they were double 0 and low and behold I have suspected dinos now! Hurray! Just thought id share my flop! Never thought it would be so easy to bottom out nutrients without a skimmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Tavan Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 You can have some of my tank water to supplement your nitrate and phosphate. I’m at 50 and 0.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abarger16 Posted November 2, 2022 Author Share Posted November 2, 2022 Haha, do you normally stay around 50 and .5? I believe ive read about a few established healthy tanks at those levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
