Hi Guys,
I am in the mist of setting a goldfish tank, for the sump tank, I intend to place lots of coral chips so that I can achieve the effect as in the marine tank and hopefully that can get rid of NO3. However, with lots of coral chips, will it affect the water condition and hence affect the grooming of goldfish, like pH, Calcium not sure what else. Anyone has any experience or thoughts to share? |

not bad at all. continue to explore on this topic and find more risks and exceptions. not entirely correct to say " coral chips help in conrolling nitrates ", but getting close.
