Dump that skimmate back into the tank lol would help with low phosphateHey family quick evening/am update.... the skimmer is kicking some serious butt! It is pulling the darkest, smellest, crap i think ive ever seen...not being dramatic either. Im used of tea colored skimmate, this RE is pulling dark coffee colored skimmate. I went from emptying the skimmer cup once a week to every couple of days. I have also stopped dosing zeozym, and some of the other bacteria to combat the cyano.... and yet the cyano still appears to be receding.... ill keep you guys updated.
I recieved my icp test and like i thought.... phosphate deficient. My hanna, according to the icp test is off by a few tenths. Im now dosing close to 3ml of day of phosphorus....based on my hanna test im at .05, but according to my icp test the hanna is off as mentioned earlier, a few tenths...which means my corals are starving. Im bumping the dosage and go from there. Pay attention to your tank folks....
Here is the link to my latest icp test
