Hey guys, with so many different options I feel a few of you experienced guys could help make feeding a well balanced diet a bit easier for both coral and fish.
My tank is a 20 gallon with a 5 gallon sump /refugium
Currently im not directly feeding coral but i would if needed.
Also side note my nitrates are OK as of right now, but sometimes can run a bit low 3-5. This increased to 15 after I started feeding daily instead of twice a week. ( I heard Royals like to eat three times a day.) Is there a suggested product for increasing nitrates/phosphates? Am i feeding too much?
I guess what im really asking is if what im currently doing is enough or if you would suggest i do anything more (or less) to ensure a well balanced diet for all/ really maintain and improve coloring and growth long term.
Oh and i have an extra conch if someone wants it or an anemone for free.
Thanks, Kilo
