is biopellets better than Poly labs reef resh in removing no3 and po4?

[dowtish]

that should be fine. Just make sure your skimmer is able to handle the amount of effluent that is coming from your reactor. You might have to get a more efficient skimmer. Bigger is not always better, but quality and performance.

It have been a few days after I installed the bio pellets and my skimmer is not skimming anything is it a cause for concern ?

give it a little time and soon your skimmer will be pulling the nastiest black nog ever.

translation might not work on that phrase

this is the 3rd day of the bio pellets and i noticed that the no3 started dropping slightly and the po4 is still 0 . I have been dosing Polylab genesis near to the input of the bio pellets reactor every morning. Will be monitoring

I measured no3 using salifert and po4 using hanna hi-713

[chercm]

I have added rowaphos into another reactor .
