I have a 125 FOWLR and I am having trouble keeping the nitrate levels down. I only feed every other day and do water changes every 3 weeks. The tank is stocked with :
1 lionfish (5-6 inches)
1 Emp Angel (4-5 Inches)
1 Naso Tang (5-6 inches)
1 Cinammon Clown (3-4 inches)
1 Niger Trigger (5-6 inches)
1 Rainbow Wrasse (2-3 inches)
I have about 75 lbs of live rock in the tank but I also have a pretty large amount of bio bale in the sump along with the pre-filter media and a foam sponge under my protien skimmer return. Someone recently suggested that I may have too much biological filtration and recommended I slowly remove the bio bale and go with the live rock only. I wanted to get some other opinions abou this and would appreciate any input.
Thanks,
Joe
