I have a Biocube 29, removed bioballs in chamber 2, replaced with live rock rubble up to the top, plus I have about 40lbs live rock in the display portion of the tank. All the water paramiters are perfect except the nitrates. The are reading like 80ppm or 100ppm. How can I lower the nitrate? Is the live rock in chamber 2 becoming a nitrate factory?? Should I take them out and put chaeto or a protien skimmer ?? Any help or Ideas would be appreciated...
Thank you

Has the tank finished cycling?
What fish do you have and what and how much do you feed?

You didn't mention what your bioload is.
How often/how much what do you change out?
How old is the tank?
