You could always dose P04. Fish of Hex sells some on his site.

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it! I ordered some chemiclean yesterday so we shall see how it goes. I just interpret this as meaning I can add more fish.You could have some of my water from my water change,my Hanna is testing at .23 yesterday but see no harm in anything and it’s been that high for me for months.
I lost a small eel in my work tank to that. I’ve never had issues with fish doing it though. Hopefully he recovers well.I lost an eel to an MP40 before. I ended up buying an anemone guard after that. Now I'm glad I have a closed loop system with no wave makers at all.
Oh good point I did notice the DI looking a bit gross. I’ll have to replace it tomorrow.Makes sure to run aeration with chemiclean...
If you have a strong skimmer you can leave it running and just take the cup off and let it overflow into the sump.
But an extra air stone is never a bad idea when you have a heavy bioload.
Side note, everytime it get cyano if chase my tail for a week or two and the realize my DI resin is expired and hosting bacteria lol

Is that your DI canister or your filter block? Is your DI Resin White? I’ve never seen mine do that.Makes sure to run aeration with chemiclean...

Unfortunately, that is the DI canister. I'm using the color changing resin, it goes from blue to greenish-brown. It looks worse than it is...Is that your DI canister or your filter block? Is your DI Resin White? I’ve never seen mine do that.
I checked mine this morning and it looks the same. So I’ll be changing out my resin today.Unfortunately, that is the DI canister. I'm using the color changing resin, it goes from blue to greenish-brown. It looks worse than it is...
If you have any iodine based dip (Seachem reef dip, lugols, etc) you may want to try dipping it.Chemiclean treatment seams to have worked really well, although it looks like it’s going to have cost me my RR Pink Cadillac frag. The chemiclean really irritated it and started losing tissue this morning.

Wow! That’s low. My scrubber made a world of difference but I also use Kalk as my sole alk/cal source.Yesterday marks the first day my tank has ever had a pH above 8.0!
Despite having a CO2 scrubber on my skimmer I really struggle keeping my pH up. It’s been hovering closer to 8.0 lately and as a result I’ve noticed an uptake in alkalinity consumption and lots of new growth tips. Hoping the weather warms up enough to start cracking some windows!
