I’m dealing with the same thing brother. 23 nitrates and 0 phosphates. I started feeding a more and added reef roids to my food. I read it’s heavy on phosphates. Today is day 1 so I’ll give it a few days and test. Fingers crossed!
After day 2 of feeding in the morning and once again at night with frozen and reef roids. Tested .006 with the Hanna checker. It’s not much but it’s a reading. Been getting 0 for a couple weeks now. It’s moving in the right direction!
salifert po4 test is not that accurate, might still need hanna to test po4.. my salifert po4 test points my tank po4's at zero, but hanna test shows 0.1😵💫
Yikes! I believe my issue is probably algae. I have quite a bit of bubble algae that I’m sure is holding most of the po4 making the test read zero. Once I get that cleared up, I’ll try a new test kit brand. Thanks for the advice!
