Post #57, some good details on how to dose or believed system requirements.I have a 6-month old mixed reef that went through a battle with SCA which I successfully defeated using nutrient management (dosing NeoNitro and NeoPhos daily to achieve 100:1 ratio), daily dosing of live phyto, daily dosing of beneficial bacteria (rotation of MB7, EcoBalance, and LifeSource), big dosing of live pods, adding live ocean rock, and a healthy dose of patience.
Now I have some big patches of cyano and, in the last week, GHA starting to grow. I'm trying hard to play the slow game and not go nuclear on things....really want to build a healthy, sustainable system. But man, it's hard sometimes.
I no longer have to dose nutrients and am maintaining consistent 100:1 ratio (nitrates are around 7-9, phosphates are 0.07-0.09 with daily testing).
Will dosing Reef Actif help with my cyano/GHA issues?
Any risk in this reducing nitrates/phosphates and dinos returning?
