HOW? Algea growth using GFO and carbon dosing...

[daniella3d]

hmm maybe something died in your tank and the algae is consuming the nitrates before you can mesure it?

When I had a lot of caulerpa in my tank my nitrates always showed 0 in my tests, but the algae grew like mad, so having a test showing 0 is not really an indication I think.
