Red Sea No3 Ph4 reducer

Dj.dale · 06/19/2016, 07:40 PM

I just started using this product and like to get you guys reviews . My Nitrate is really high and want to reduce it . I have 500 gallon tank and the product says to dose 3 ml for every 25 gallons and adjust skimmer to very wet , which I have done . Right now I am dosing 70 ml a day and haven't seen any reduce of nitrate ? I have been using it for 3 weeks now . How long does it take or do I need to increase the dose ?

NO3:PO4-X is a form of carbon dosing, so it might take a fair number of weeks to show much effect. You could try increasing the dose as long as there's no signs of trouble.

My first time using it I was on it for a month or two and no reductions. Had to stop cause things weren't looking good. Just tried starting again last week.
