No, you don't want 0 nitrates. But it is much easier to add them to get to an appropriate level than it is to get rid of them.
I did notice a slow down in growth after adding the blocks, but I am also having issues with phosphates (from feeding pellets), so I can't say just yet if it is caused by the 0 nitrates. I've been running a GFO reactor the past week, so we'll see how it goes.

I was thinking about adding 1L to my sump, I have a chamber that I could create a basket for and drop it in, would only take up about half of the chamber. I don't have any issues with nitrates but have been dealing with cyano and have eliminating it by dosing microbacter. Not sure that I'll see much benefit by adding the siporax but extra filtration isn't usually a bad thing.
