My tank is well established over 10 years
125 gal moslty softies 10 fish in total .
I Use Red Sea salt.
All of a sudden my 3 large patches of green star polyps closed up.
I don’t test my water too often ( I know stupid)
But I don’t keep high end corals.
I noticed my protein skimmer was putting out too much, found out it was partially clogged . ( I fixed that ). My phosban reactor wasn’t tumbling enough. ( fixed that partially clog)
I dose with 2oz vinegar every day and do a 5 gal water change every week.
Is there a way to reduce my nitrates other than doing large water changes several days in a row ? I live in a condo and it’s not the easiest job to do water changes other than the 5 gal weekly.
My ro water is in a closet upstairs and runs into a 60 gal brute. I then have to carry down the bucket 3 flights of stairs.
Any suggestions is appreciated .
