So I have a question for you all. Iv been trying to research how to keep a good phosphate level in my reef tank ideally .02 or so. All I can find is how to decrease phosphates when you have too much, like using gfo or phosgaurd pellets in a reactor. So I have a reactor hooked into tank but it's not running at the moment because I seem to not have any as it .00 according to Hanna checker. I don't have a huge bioload in my tank as of now I have 2 clowns a royal gramma , cleaner shrimp and a few snails and hermits. Along with multiple corals I can't name if needed prob 15 pieces or so . I almost try to over feed my tank to see if I can raise the phosphate level wich seems to work after a few days of not running reactor but as soon as I run reactor levels drop back to 0.00 and no matter how little gfo or pellets I run I can't seem to find that right middle ground. So I'm curious as how you guys seem to level your phosphates when your trying to gain them in a sense ! Any idea or thought would be awesome thanks !!
