Add a light if you want to really have some proper nutrient export. Photosynthetic processes are what uses up NO3 and PO4, so you should add supplemental lighting.

Seen you update the same time every day... but you were early today

Looks like all the nitrate is gone after 3 days... not that great of a phosphate scrubber by the looks of it, did a little but not much... maybe it would have been better with more light... what was the size of your macro-algae ball? And I see the colors but what was the number for the nitrate for intro?
