Cody's 80g mixed reef ;)

[shabidou1990]

Long time no update , so thought I'd do just that. Since last post , I've had a lot go sideways ! Nitrates climb to over 100ppm without any idea as to how so fast. Got to the point of feeding every 3 days and doing massive
Water changes multiple times per week , as everyone kept suggesting to feed less and more water changes. So found that my salt buckets (the last 3 of my
H2ocean buckets were all from same batch) tested for 8+ppm each fresh bucket with ro/Di water at 0tds . Realized was adding nitrates , and running phosban to the point had absolutely no phosphate (salifert, Red Sea, Hanna) . Started carbon dosing but without the phosphate , that would not lower nitrates , stopped phosban and started dosing bacteria but while running my uv proved absolutely useless . Anyways ! Long story short , I'm now running Aquaforest probiotic reef salt , and dosing a few aquaforest products , corals are loving
It and I'm finally in awe of my
Tank once again! And happy to state nitrates are now below 20ppm and dropping ! So needless to say I wanted to post some pics ! Haha enjoy !
