Could anyone post the progress of the NO3 reduction when first introducing the ATS?

Takes about 4 cleanings of the screen (full of algae) to bring N down. If your have a ton of N, or a weak scrubber, it might take 8.

Clean every 7 days no matter what.

How many of No3 ( %) will be brought down after 4 cleanings ?
