Does anyone have any fresh ideas about how i can get my nitrate levels down. They are at 30 PPM in my 55 gal tank which has been stocked for about a month. I have tried 15% water changes, I have tried to reduce the amount of food that goes in the tank. I have Live rock in the tank about 30 pounds of it so far. Could this be what ive read about when it comes to canister filters? or is there some other cause? Im out of ideas on how to get this level down.
I dont feel like the pet store in town is giving me very good advise beause im having more problems with what they tell me and they are only cleared up by people like you helping me
