Acropower and RS AB+

Not for me. Neither has done anything to raise either nitrate or phosphate. The old A+B had some pho’s listed in its ingredients, but the new AB+ doesn’t

Seems like you have super low nutrients? Yes I can make more.

Sucks- sorry man.
since this happened so close to the Alk rise and fall you recently experience, I’d be inclined to chalk it up to that.
have you tested nitrate and phosphate? There are so many variables- if your nutes are low, lighting super high, etc. that can all lead to stress.

same with my tank- n03 = .5, p04 = 0 - .02. Alk = 8.3 - 8.5
i keep this particular Millie in ~275 par
besides AB and AP, I do feed with oyster feast before lights on or after lights out and feeder tentacles are out

Are you dosing nitrate and phosphate?

if your phosphate is undetectable, I would drip a micro amount - like .02 for your tank volume and test 1 hour and then again at 8 hours to see how it’s metabolized

Calculate .02 ppm (Or .01) of whatever your phosphate mix based on your tank volume, and dose that, yes. Then wait an hour to get your reading - if you’re mix is spot on, you’ll read close to whatever you decided to mix for your test. At 8 hours test again to see how it metabolizes in your system.
Edit
I just recalculated the actual dose : I dose ~.065ppm of phos per day ( broken up into two doses) and at 5-8 hours, it’s undetectable again.

Raising it to .02 won't that shock anything

It should not. you can calc for .01ppm if you feel more comfortable. I dose ~.03ppm 2x per day, 12hrs apart. I test every three days - every time I test (always in the morning before first dose) I read 0 on Hanna
