the test results don't make sense to me.
120 fish only with lots of live rock
50 g sump with live rocks and lots of chateo
good size skimmer
UV number 3
salinity is 1.024
medium bio fish load
phosphate level is 5.0 (i did the test two times) but nitrate is only less than 5.0.? to me normally high phosphate level results in high nitrate level too- noted this tank doesn't has much algae with white sand bed and clear glass. i feed my fish 3 times per week and recently do 20% water change weekly. do i have to add the phosphate reactor to reduce the phosphate? high phosphate level effects to fishes? the tank has low light due to fish only, is that low light effect phosphate level?. noted i tested the other tank with a very good result 0.5 and this tank has phosphate reactor.
any inputs are appreciated
