That is true by coincidence. Fish and fish food typically add more Nitrates than Phosphates so it balances that ratio mentioned above.

With Phosphates that high and pellets you may need to dose liquid Big-Macs and Pop-Tarts for a few weeks.

Hanna checkers top out at 2.50. so my guess is thats what value would come up. i would probably do the biopellet/vinegar method and then just run that combined with gfo after your levels drop out a bit. that way you can at least save some money on gfo while things drop.
