I feel really stupid asking this but...

Will adding more live rock to my tank (pre-cured) help to lower my skyrocketing nitrates?
For some reason they spiked recently and since I'm at a loss on what else I could do (I've tried water changes, caulerpa, getting rid of my bio-wheels, etc.) so I was just wondering if I sould give it a shot? <img src="graemlins//confused2.gif" border="0" alt="[confused2]" /> <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" />

Are you running a protein skimmer? If not, you should, this will help lower your nitrates.
