I have a 75gal FOWLR with a 20gal sump for my main filtration. and a skimmer in the sump as well. i recently put a penquin 350 on the back of my tank. i was told by EVERYBODY that i talked to that the blue filter sheet inside the filter is a nitrate factory. but what about the 2 bio-wheels. leave them or remove them. i would like to keep the filter going for the water surface adgitation. but my nitrates are currently out of control. i just started a carbon dose yesterday to help. we will see how it goes. also by the way i have a very low bio load. thanks
