Glad your back so I can read some of your good advice.

I don't have a phosphate test kit but Tuesday night my Nitrates were between 0 and 2.5. Hard to tell on that Red Sea color chart. I guess I need to get a phosphate kit hugh. Do you have a preference to a certain kit? The green algae comes off pretty easy with a magnet cleaner, couple of swipes and it's gone.
