+etannert Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Most ultra low nutrient systems shoot for a lower alk level. If you're not running ULNS then you shouldn't change what you're doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpb Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Cool. Definitely not ULN levels in my tank. I'd say its in the middle. Not dirty enough for explosive softy growth but not clean enough for TOTM sps coloration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishypets Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 Sorry for not replying back sooner. There were multiple problems with the water paramaters. Fist off my sg was too high @36.5ppt. My kh was also high @ 9. And lastly the tank was too sterile. Nitrates were zero and phosphates were close to zero. Once I lowered the sg and kh I started dozing amino acids ad tripple strength and also started dozing phols extra. The tank is looking a little better and acros are showing new growth. Thanks again for those who helped and if I promised you corals come and get em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
