So I needed some operating space got a h380 over the fuge instead of the Mars hydro. Chaeto doubled in a week.

The Mars hydro grew chaeto well but this h380 is pretty damn good and it uses less space over my sump.

Traitor.

Traitor.

I kept hitting the light when I was working in my stand. I mean they both grow chaeto but I think this one is slightly faster. I went from a softball to a basketball in a week. The other went from softball to a volleyball or slightly smaller.

Volume of a basketball is 60% more than of a volleyball, nice!

You actually did the calculation....haha

Is he a bigger nerd for doing the calculation or if he already knew it?

Hmm....Tough question to answer

Did you get your nitrates under control?

Not yet still waiting on the reactor to build up the bacteria. It'll take 2-3 weeks.

Finally the sulfur denitrator is working dialing in the effluent now to get nitrate reduction.

On the other hand chaetongrowing like a basketball every 1.5 weeks.

Did 2 70gallon water change back to back dropped my nitrates down to 5-10ppm. Let's see if the corals respond better.

Here is my icp analysis

Before

After massive 75% water change.

Guess it was the high nitrate that's causing the issues. My nitrates finally down to 5ppm from denitrator and nopox.

How did your Phosphate go UP (.07 to .09) after the WC?

I wouldn't think that moving from 0.07 to 0.09 would be that significant.
