I've had my 75g up for about a year. The current parameters, Amm=0, Nitrite=0, Nitrate=5ppm. Weekly Calcium tests have averaged about 480 without dosing and Magn has been in the mid 1300's. Alk hovers just around 4, I know on the low side. PH is running on average 8.2-8.3.
I have had hardly any hard coral or coraline algae growth. My phosphates are running very high, higher than my test can go. I have just recently started running PhosGuard(Seachem) in a filter back at the output from my overflow to the sump and haven't seen much change in the Phosphate level.
Would anyone recommend to start dosing Kalk to help in removing phosphates and/or any other recommendation would be great as well.
Just an FYI, I have a 28g Nano for about 3 months now and have more coraline algae growth. I'm feeding the same food in both tanks.
Any and all help appreciated.
Thanks
