If no3 begin to drop, just continue to dose the same amount untill it reaches the desire level of no3. Only increase doses when no3 stop dropping or climbing..

ok Thanks man! :D

Hi bro,

I noticed you are using Synthetic Vinegar. To be honest, I have no prior experience with dosing vinegar to my tank. But just curious, if it makes any difference to use natural vinegar instead?

Since synthetic vinegar is most likely acetic acid, would it be safer to use the naturally fermented rice/sugar cane vinegar? Any thoughts on this?

Good job! if possible, maintain your no3 at 3-5ppm. Don't go all the way down or your sps will turn rather pale..
