HI,
I'm trying to decide whether to use my pellet reactor or not. I'm drawn to the All-in-one biopellets, but not much to research on its actual performance in our tanks long term.
What do you guys suggest?
My tank has been running since 26-08-2014.
Cycle was about done 2 weeks ago.
Last PO4 reading - 0.25
Last NO3 reading - <5
No NO4/NH4/NO2
No visible algae. I only saw fine green algae forming in a 60mm diameter on a piece of LR, which only lasted 3 days during the cycle. Other than that, no diatom/algae bloom at all.
Only LS is 2 Turbo snails and 2 blue legged hermit crabs.
Have about 10 green polyps growing out of LR in my DT. (I didnt put them there).
Fishless (hundreds of pods that are multiplying)
I have a 3 stage sump.
Stage 1 -
