the 3 to 4" DSB in my tank does not seem to be kicking in yet, the nitrate levels remaining elevated (>50). decreased feedings and addition of caulerpa to the sump didnt make any difference. rest of parameters are fine. I am now seriously considering a denitrator. either coil or block types DIY. Any advice/experience appreciated!

Hi ShipMate, welcome to Reefland! [img]/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]
How long have you had your 3-4" deep sand bed and exactly what did you use to construct it? In other words, is it a very fine particle size sand? And have you added polychaete worms and such to keep it active? Regards, Ninong [img]/ubb/smile.gif[/img] P.S. - Moved to Reef Aquariums forum. ------------------ Irrational Exuberance! |
