Thanks a lot guys..I read up a bit also and basically understood that
wet/dry needs to go and I need to rely on either Berlin or Jaubert. I guess
that means either LR or DSB based setups. I am adding LR ..have disconnected
the Wet/Dry and UV..also now looking into water circulation of 4k litres an
hour! That seems too much though..

I have a 200 G fish with live rock fr about 10 months now and want to shift
completely to a reef setup. All the required equipment is there. Lights,
Eheim Wet/Dry, Eheim canister, powerheads, Uv, Skimmer, Chiller etc.

Problem is the nitrates keep increasing till I water chnage. Is there any
way to keep nitrates stable at the bare minimum? Do i need to add a
denitrifying filter? Add Live rocks? Add Live Sand? What shld i basically
do to make sure the nitrates dont rise? Ive been reading and I actually
even read somewhere that a wet/dry will even enhance nitrate production!
So do I dump it ? and substitute with what?

Looking fr a simple and longterm solution and I know the best advice will
be here!

Thanks,

Ajay
