Yeah, I got a little too aggressive at first, then I got a little scared. Plus I wasn't treating the top offs at first either, so that was kind of defeating the purpose. I will go ahead and get it down around 8 before trying any corals.

How high can the nitrate be for zoas or ricordia? I have chaeto growing in my refugium now, so that should be going down too, but I'll probably never get it down to zero. My refugium was packed with macroalgae at one time but it all died suddenly and I couldn't get anything to grow in there for a long time. I never could figure out exactly why that happened, but I bought a new light and things seem to all better now.
