    Getting nutrient levels under control are one of the most challenging and rewarding events in the life of a reef keeper. Congrats. You had a couple of good mentors to help you get there.

    Yeah i did I hope that Nitrate level stays a 0 cause it being at 160 really sucks it was even darker than the chart itself

    Louie, glad I could help. We all have benefited much from other reefers. I have learned so much from Gary and others here too.

    I also want to mention that Louie is only 14 years old and already is more dedicated than a lot. Louie, you are going to be a great reefer.

    Water changes are actually a pretty inefficient way to control nutrients unless you are doing other things to help reduce it. its part of the solution but not the solution by itself.
