Recommended Posts

Fastest way is to do a large water change. A 80% water change will drop your nitrates to 20ppm. Another 80% water change after the first one will drop your nitrates to 4ppm. :P

My Setup:

3x2x2 tank with IOS

Equipment List:

Chiller: Artica 1/5HP

Chiller Pump: Sicce 4000

Return Pump: OR3500

Skimmer: Deltec APF600

Wavemaker: Tunze Wavebox/2x Hydor K2/SCWD wavemaker

Lights: DElighting 2x150W MH + 2x 39W T5 Atinic

FR: Skimz

FR Pump: Atman AT-104

Tubby ATO, Kalkweisser Reactor with magnetic stirrer.

you can try using AZN03 , fastest reducer for N03 for me so far that i have tested. :)

AZ NO3 will need at least 2-4 weeks to be effective. And you need a really good skimmer for it to work well. :whistle

This from my personal experience of using 3 bottles of AZ NO3 in 1.5 months and reducing my nitrates from 50~100 to 10~25ppm. Right now using Bio Clean, my nitrates have stabalised at between 2.5~5ppm regardless of how much feeding I do.
