My nitrates are down to between 5&10 now,i always have cheato in my sump and ive dropped the feeds down to once a day alternating with coral foods.1day corals nxt day the fish.thanks everyone for the advice,think im getting back to normal now :-)

Hey thanks for the inputs,dont think i need a canister my sumps a winner pretty sure by all opinions that i just need to lower my feedings a fair bit. With all the filtration ive got going on i reckon a few fair sized water changes and time il get my no3 back to zero and keep em there,they are...

I use coral sand and id say the level is closer to 20 the water changes have been sufficient for months and my tank is nowhere near over stocked! These nitrates have kinda just appeared and i dont know why?
