The solution to pollution is dilution. You need to get the nitrates down quickly.

Oh, I should add something. Test your NSW before hand. If the parameters are quite a bit different from your tank water, add it slowly to the tank. Don't just dump it all in. You don't want to radically change your pH or anything really quickly.

The tank is only 40 days running pretty young for a reef tank could be a issue too...
