Live Rock Removal = Nitrates
Decided it was time to remove a section (approx 30%) of my live rock to make room for some minor rescaling.. Within several days, notice a nitrate build up, with 16ppm at its peak, before I decide to add some macropore and 10-15% WC per day. Nitrates >10ppm, within 2 days.
The new re-scape....
From this...
The nitrates didn't appear to affect the anemones to date, and monitoring all WP very closely ATM.
Considering a de-nitrator or bio pallets, currently using macropore/purigen and NOPOX. Any thoughts/advise on the best direction would be greatly appreciated.... :-)
