Whats up everyone, been cycling a 75 gallon reef tank on day 74. About 90 lbs of live rock, sand substrate, protein skimmer, 30 gallon sump, two taotronics 120 LED's, two 500gph stream pumps.
Critters - 5 small hermits, 15 chestnut turbo snails, coral banded shrimp, candy goby shrimp
Bottom feeder - 3.5 inch diamond watchman
Worm hunter - 2 inch 6 line wrasse
Special needs/pods/$$ - 3 inch green mandarin
Other fishes - juvenile bonded clowns, one orange, one black
4 inch foxface rabbit
juvenile regal tang
4 inch royal gramma
Water parameters as of today
Salinity .025
Ammonia 0
nitrites 0
nitrates 20
phosphate 0
calcium 430
magnesium 1340
DKH 12
PH 8.4
Temp 78
Been holding steady for the last three weeks with just weekly water changes and changing filter media. Cannot seem to get nitrates below 20. I currently have a bio ball wet dry, could that be the culprit? I will be upgrading to a 40 gallon refugium soon. Will that affect my tank going instantly from bio balls to refugium?
