Posted this in fish diseases, but this forum may be more appropriate... First time I experienced this my phosphate went from 0.05 before to 0.0 after treatment via Gianna checker. Nitrate was always 0 via red sea.
So, I have had a fluke issue (which thankfully has been managed by prazipro) in my DT. I have treated twice, and both times all the GHA and all nuisance algae for that matter has died after treatment. This is a good thing mind you, just wondering what is actually happening. I also noticed the first time I went through this that the cotals paled and regained color when I slowed/stopped the GFO (two to four weeks after initial treatment). Is there something about prazipro that binds nitrate or phosphate to the point of not supporting algae? Is algea fix just one if the ingredients in Prazipro? Very curious indeed..
