It’s been hot topic these days with nutrients and chasing numbers everyday by implementing diff techniques to take it up or down too quickly..hey listen if I take you from Florida wearing nice shorts and put you in snowy road during winter and tell me will that be ok for you? Same way for corals..listen listen listen..always listen to what corals are telling you by seeing them everyday..you have to listen to what your corals are telling to you not what people are telling about parameters/numbers like to be..why are we missing this simple logic? I have came through all these things earlier and used to pull my hair everyday by checking with Hanna checker.Always go very slow and try to understand what corals are telling you.
if I post like my nutrients are No3-20,Po4-0.2 everyone says omg these are very high and your corals will go brown then I immediately used to strip nutrients and after that if I post my corals are looking pale then again same people say omg you are starving corals start dosing..I always end up with imbalance of nutrients in my tank.
my tank looks so good when I stopped testing these and watching these everyday.I only started checking these when I see any issue in my tank not everyday.
sorry for the rant as just I just want to vent out what I am seeing these days..happy reefing everyone and stay blessed
