I am looking for something to lighten the load. My tank is overstocked (not going to change, that's how I like it) and I usually do a 50% water change once, or twice a week depending on amount of feeding, I keep my Nitrates under 20ppm. Anyway, I put a new filter on another tank (API Super clear 50) and it advertises that it removes Nitrates. So far it has been true, I have yet to see a reading above 5ppm even though at one point Nitrites were going up 2-3 points a day.
I read a little about DeNitrate, does anyone use this? Or is there another media that I should look into. I run 2 box filters (Fluval Aquaclear 70 and a Marineland Penquin 200 with Biowheel) as well as two sponge air filters.
Thanks.
