Help dosing Neonitro and neophos

[Reefhaven]

Hey guys,
Need to raise nitrate and phosphate in the tank. Currently, levels are reading 0 for both. Question is do I need the reef biofuel or microbacter 7 in conjunction with the other two? Just want to do it right. TIA

210 gallon tank w/ 40 gallon sump
7.8 Alk
425 Cal
1400 Mag
8.3 PH

Only will need to dose reef biofuel if your reef tank is carbon limited. To test and see if it is, dose the neonitro & neophos according to instructions to get to your desired ppm. If after you've reached your desired ppm the nitrate doesn't gradually decrease as your phosphate is taken up, you will need to dose biofuel.
