Stopping NoPox?

[JohnPH]

Hi, I've been using NoPox for a few months to try and get my Nitrates & Phosphates down. I'm now at a point where I'm happy with the levels of both & wondering what I should now do. Should I stop dosing NoPox immediately, drop the amount i'm dosing to zero over the course of a month or so or just continue to dose at the levels that I have been??

I don't want the levels to go back up again but I also don't want them to drop to zero so not sure what the best course of action is?

TIA

Try to reduce the dosage by half first And then adjust in plus or minus by 10 percent every week depending on the increase or further decrease in nutrients.

Just reduce the daily dose as per the instructions, basically to a maintenance dose, and then adjust as necessary over the following weeks until the levels stay were you want them

how many ml you dosing a day?

Currently dosing 12ml per day

A reduction in 4 to 6 ml would be a good starting point as mentioned above, you may need to look for a nitrates stability, once you find the right amount
