How to think about nitrates & phosphates in the reef aquarium | Important SPS nutrient concepts

Here I talk about important nitrate and phosphate concepts in the reef aquarium, with a focus on Acropora or SPS. Nutrients in reef tanks is a constantly evolving topic, and it seems that there is no right or wrong answer. The aim of this video is to give an understanding of the dynamics of nutrients in your reef tank and their affect on color, growth, and health of SPS so that you could make an informed decision on your own.
