Hi,

I am wondering.
If the level of the phosphate (PO4) needs to be very low around 0.03 ppm and also the level of the nitrate < 1.0 ppm how do the corals get the nutriments?

The levels may be low, but are there, so are therefore available for uptake by the coral and it's zooxanthallae.

I run very close to (ULNS) parameters but you still need to keep your organics up with something like Red Sea "Reef Energy".
