I have a 125 gallon tank. No fish because of velvet. I have a full CUC that includes 5 shrimp, lots of snails, conch, urchin (he is a bad boy), scallop, brittle starfish, sandshifting star and lots of hermits.

The tank has coral that are doing fairly well, the zoas are almost all open and happy. Water parameters are good, with the exception of nitrates. I was feeding the CUC and now I want to cut back because of the nitrates. But how do I know everyone is getting enough food?

I am also battling some LHA. The tank is an older tank, but was moved about 3 months ago.
 
What are your nitrates and phosphates and what are you currently feeding?
