The friendliest place on the web for anyone with an interest in aquariums or fish keeping!
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Bioload means waste producing animals, for the most part fish. Reducing the bioload in most cases means reducing the number of fish in the tank. Sometimes it can be from animals that need constant feeding like non photosynthetic corals.

Too many feedings or overfeeding taxes the biofilter and must be compensated by increased water changes and the volume of each water change. That does not work with overstocked tanks though.
