Now I'm running my pH at 8.5-8.6 to see if the dinos will stay gone. I don't know what it is with pellets it seems sometimes they are great sometimes they are problematic

I also had those problems withcarbon dosing. Thats the same as pellets.

Hey Roger everything I read is dinos love low nutrients and they use carbon source for food then out compete the good bacteria is that sound right?

That's been my exsperiance with them. It's been a couple years since I had the problem.
