I removed the gfo entirely. I have not run any gfo for about 6 weeks. I do test for phosphates and nitrates regularly. I have not a trace of either. I will only run gfo as needed. My corals have never looked better. The sps that suffered damage from over use of gfo are repairing themselves. I would suggest only running carbon and you will see an improvement. Just test for PO4 and NI and do regular water changes.
What is happening!!! :( :( :(

dkH- around 6.5-7
pH- close to 7.8-7.9
NO- 20
PO-0

I'll be checking Carbonate and NO for the next 3 days.
gonna keep my bio-pellets running for a second week if nothing else starts to negatively react.
