Yeah I hope so. I was wondering if I could do a nitrate pad on one side and the phosphate on the other next time or if I have to do them both on both sides. If I can split them up it will make them last longer

Yeah, nitrite pad one side phosphate pad on the other behind the blue floss. That's the best way to go. You don't need 2 of each.

Yeah right now I've got it in both would it be ok to pull one of each out and dry it out to use next time?

That should be fine to do. Your levels on nitrate and phosphate aren't bad so 1 of each should be fine.
