Hello,
I'm trying to clean up all potential sources of nitrates in my tank. I've had my chiller a little over two years and I've never flushed it out. Do you think there could be a good amount of detritus settled in my chiller that could be adding to nitrates? Would back flushing it with water and/or vinegar help? My chiller is working fine, so I wouldn't be doing this for performance reasons, just to clean it out. It's a bit of a challenge to take the chiller offline, so I wanted to see if cleaning it would be worth it. Thanks!
