I feed heavy but and I thought with that much bio capacity I should have been good. I just started a fuge and considering the below.
1. Should I remove the regular matrix and try only pound matrix?
2. Should I add more?
I did cut back on feeding and that made a big difference but not very happy fish lost 3 anthias. I also now have twice the amount of fish.

What are your phosphates? If they are too low your nitrates will not come down.
