Dosing PO3

[Brooks Allman]

Id like to bump my nitrates to 5 without a ton of feeding and or turning my skimmer off. My Phosphates are at a .1 due to a mishap in my di chamber which has been corrected. What will happen to my phosphates if I dose to get my nitrates up to a stable 5?
Thanks

Do you carbon dose? What's your system details?

what are you wanting to dose/Raise?
PO4 is phosphate
NO3 is Nitrate.
a phosphate level of 0.1 is generally considered perfectly OK.
Nitrates, the general consensus now seems to be 10-20ish.

definitely need more information to help though, skimmer? carbon dose? fuge? nutrient export methods?
