I've
always been interested ina nitrate reactor for my FO system. Is it a commercial
unit or did you make it ? Please tell us more about it and it's
setup.
-----Original Message-----best bet would be no more than 50% and build yourself a nitrate reactor, I have 0 nitrates and change water maybe once a year.....I do add make up water, but I think right now it has been close to 3 years since I did a change....

Hi folks!!, I�m wondering if you can help me with a little problem:
I have a 110 gal fish only tank (just some polyps attached to a stone) with
6 amazing fishes.
I haven�t had enough money to perform water changes as suggested, so my
nitrates went higher than suggested. I know that if I start performing 20%
water changes, i�m gonna need to change 1 1/2 times the total volume of
water, and that equals LOTS OF MONEY!!.
So i�m considering on performing a 100% or a 90% water change to reduce at
near to zero nitrates, PO4 and silicates and other nutrients.
Is this safe to do?? Of course i�m thinking on introducing my fishes after
several hours of acclimating to the new water.
Also, i have 50 lbs of live rock and it didn�t helped me with my nitrate
problem even do i have 4 40" bulbs. 2 blue and 2 full espectrum.
Please help me!!!
Marco
pd: Does anyone have used A-Z No3 (Nitrate remover?) cause i�m considering
in using it.
