Has anyone ever used Nitra Zorb before and does it work ?

My Nitrates have always been about 40ppm which isn't the danger zone but I would like them to drop a bit.

I was very other stocked at one time but I have re-homed loads.
I also do a water change every week like clockwork and on Saturday I did a big water change moving logs to suck up all the fish waste and I added a bigger filter.

No need to use it 40ppm is very safe, levels of 200+ppm is where you want to get worried.

Thanks for your reply I read on a google search it shouldn't go over 50ppm the lower the better

40ppm is absolutly fine, and i should think the majority of peoples Nitrate on this site sit around that number.

Scientific studies have shown that levels of 400ppm are safe for most fish, 40ppm is absolutely fine, nitrate is generally so negligible that it's not worth testing for in my experience, partly because the quality and accuracy of nitrate test kits is so poor.

I've tried something like this a while back and i found it didnt do anything, a good few big water changes every day/other day will lower nitrate but obv it'll still eventually end up back where it was unless u keep them changes going.

Like most said, 40ppm is fine.. both my tanks sit around there!!
