I run carbon for about 1 week a month. I run a phosphate reactor all the time which i change the media on average every 2 months.

The system is very heavily stocked fish wise, yet the system is working great. After a few months of running the nitrates slowly got to around 25ppm the tank has been running about 1 year and 9 months now and the system has settled out and is showing 0ppm nitrate now on a salifert test kit. This is from nothing i have done just the system working on its own. I do around 100 liter water change every 2 months and thats about it apart from maually keeping my Ca in check.
