lol. I do hope folks take away the appropriate messages from this though-- ( and I know you were joking Tom)--- the answer is not to stop feeding your fish what they need, but to think about what you feed them and not to overstock your system which only requires that you feed more. The other takeaway is that ALOT of people are test crazy and often misinterpret the results driving themselves ( and the rest of us) nuts without cause.

Bio-pellets takes care of my nitrates but does zilch for Po4. I found that the product Po4x4 will remove 10x as much Po4 then GFO but gets saturated pretty quickly and becomes expensive to regenerate with the amount that I use. So in one of my systems, Po4 stays at a healthy 2.75 ppm :D
