no stringiness, a little bubble under the film but not everywhere and at the end of day. Under microscope, it is moving but very very slowly in the same direction. I have 0 nitrates with red sea test (algae control) and 0.03 ppm de PO4 with checker Hanna ULR. I stop NOPOX (only 0.5 for 200 l par day before). The tank has 9 months. I would like to improve NO3 but it is difficult. My RO water is ok for me.
