come get me tang police!
No, I only use co2 on my container ponds outside. I don't dose excel either.
Yes, KNO3 was added. Should I mix a new batch and leave it out?
Should I also use distilled water for the WC's?
WOW. What a shock!! I shook the 2nd bottle on the Nitrate kit and tested again. My nitrate are almost off the chart. They are about 160ppm. I'm doing an immediate large WC today including getting all the gook off the bottom. What else should i be doing to get this under control? I hate adding chemicals to my tank. Is there something I can add to my filter that will absorb the Nitrates. I never would have known if I hadn't read up on nitrates. API should make a point of letting people know about this. ANYWAY WHAT NOW?
