gcvt, I thought we strive to keep it below .5
Well, ideally, they should be 0...especially if you're keeping corals and inverts. But, 2.0 is not bad at all. Nitrates aren't extremely toxic like ammonia and nitrites. Ammonia and nitrites should be completely undetectable, but you have a little more leeway with nitrates.
