Are your nitrates falling? Do you feed your corals a lot?

Mine went from 17 to zero very quickly. It took several weeks to build up to 3ml with about 85 gallons. It bounced betterment 15 and 20 for about 10 days and then they went to zero and have stayed there. I want to gradually reduce the vodka and hopefully quit dosing at some point
