Plants and water changes will reduce the nitrates, but I've had mine go up that high without killing the fish. However, if I noticed it that high I would perform a 20% water change.
Could be lack of oxygen or too much co2 if you pump that into the tank. Also, how often do you do water changes? How much water do you take out for the changes? How well do you condition the water? What type of filter? Lots of variables.
I'm glad everyone likes it. Right now, I'm working on a co2 system for plants. Might go the yeast route since I do a lot of beer brewing anyway. I even made a DIY drop checker, but I'm unsure it's working properly.
Thanks! I was first inspired by some of the salt water coral rock walls I saw on some other forums. How big is your tank? The tank size definitely plays a big role in how much it costs to do something like this.

Used egg crate, pond foam, river rock, PVC, JB waterweld and sand. Everything is fish safe. Total cost = 175. Took a while to build though. The wall completely hides the water filter, heater and air pump. I just put it in the tank, looks great.

Depends. How much are you willing to spend? Are you good with productivity software? Blender 3d is free, but difficult to use if you've never used similar software. The most user friendly software I've used is Strata 3d and reasonably priced for about 400 bucks. Google also has free software out...
