    They are more like 15 now. See I know all is good for that moment and Im really happy. But I think I should feed my fishes more then every other day and that for sure will increase nitrates. Thats the whole reason of my worrying. I'd like to make sure they are happy too ;) I started with that dosing yesterday evening, just little, a lot less then suggested. Im trying be really careful, if I see something abnormal I'll stop it. If I could get Nitrates to 5 with feeding every day that would be perfect. To answer your question, No I don't have any algae problem, wait except I used to clean from glass every 8,9 days and now I do it every 4,5. That's all.

    You should consider changing WC schedule and do maybe 15gl WC a week should also help reduce those nitrate levels.
     
    Corailline and DSC reef like this.
