![]() I also had the nagging nitrate problem. could never get it below 10 ppm and then i changed my protein skimmer to a bubble magus.
I had to go buy a new nitrate test kit because i couldnt get a reading with the old kit, well no reading with the new kit. been at 0 ppm for three months now. |

![]() A higher end skimmer could solve your problem. I personally do not like a single coralife product. I've watched the coralife skimmers in action at our LFS and on a friends tank and I'm really not impressed.

![]() +1 for biopellets, I have been fighting the nitrate problem until i use biopellets. I tried so many different way such as regular water change, reduce feeding, nitrate reducer chemical, etc .... but nothing works wonder like biopellets. I went from 40ppm to nearly zero now (if my test kit is correct). However, i notice my lps also suffer, they seem to grow slowly. I have to increase feeding now
