Nitrate always hovered around 20 ppm and recently my phosphates been climbing to .5 to .75 all on API test . So I add 2lf gfo reactor.. I feed pretty heavy.. any comment will be helpful thank you

What is the size of your scrubber? Please post pics of your setup. How much flow is your scrubber getting? The algae scrubber will be fine over a DSB.
