Nutrient reduction

[drtrash]

Looking for option to reduce nitrates in short timeframe. Most I can do with water change is 25%, so it helps but not great, could fire up bio pellets but that takes 4-6 weeks. On my second fluc treatment for gha and after die off can't seem to get nutrients out fast enough to prevent algea storm. Not sure if liquid carbon, like nopox is faster than biopellets. Nitrates are around 25 ppb. Have skimmer off for treatment, but running gfo

What about vinegar? Or would that take too long?

Last time I used carbon it took over a month to kick in, may have to live with weekly wc

75% water change...same as introducing a new coral to our tanks. In a way, that's 100% water change.
