I wish I could get better PE

Picked up a Hanna Nitrate checker at @LoveTheReef will Test tonight.
 
When I was at you house your tank looked Awesome!

Nothing good happens fast in reefing.
Only the bad things happen fast!
 
My nitrate showed some 0 just like my other test kits. I dose some nitrates today.

I decided I'm not going to chase PE. I'm not going to mess up a good thing. I do have great colors in my corals. I read online someone doing the same thing I'm doing with low nutrients. Feeding different types of amenoies.
 
Your tank is nice and healthy. It looks great.

Share with us your fish list.
5 times out of 10 I find it’s a fish reducing PE. 2 times out of 10 it’s starving corals
2 times out of 10 it’s a pest
The other time who knows.

I don’t thinks it’s any of my fish I’m super cautious with what fish I put in the tank. I think it might be zero readings for Nitrates. My phosphate was test yesterday at .05 for the most part im having good PE except for my tenuis. Not seeing as much as I see advertised.

Wow it seems much bigger to me for some reason maybe it’s the aqua scape(which is beautifully done!). Great mixed reef selection!

Thank you very much. I wish I did go a little bigger but my purpose going small along with I live in a small place is to keep cost down.
