Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.
Allen's home-made formula...(-NO3=WC%)
This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.

Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!

Re: BigAl's slow chronicle . . .

Good morning JoJo! Thank you for your kind words. I'll be looking for and following your chronicle closely. I enjoy seeing a system go from idea to reality and seeing all the changes that come about in the process.

Have a good day and Happy Reefing

Re: BigAl's slow chronicle . . .

Slowwwww. I'm thinking about, thinking about, the next change to my tank. Then, I think, I'll think about, considering about which tank I'm talking about. Do you think that I'm moving too quickly.

No doubt about when I move too fast, things start to go wrong. Hope you had a good Christmas Al.

Re: BigAl's slow chronicle . . .

Thanks Doc! I, like you, tend to make mistakes WAY too quickly if I rush. To be honest I make enough going slow to NOT rush!!

Christmas was AMAZING and I hope you and yours had the same *S*

Now let's do some work on your tank(s)
