Any thoughts, pro's, con's on the use of a Denitrator?

If you do a thread search - you will find a great deal on nitrate removal and control - including meaningful discussions about de-nitrators, the various kinds and their use.
A very short answer to your question is not very useful to you, as you have not described your system - fish only? full blown reef? focus on soft corals, or LPS or SPS? Ad infinitum....
So - again, try the search option first and then when you comeback to this thread, the suggestions you may recieve will make a lot more sense.
Good Luck!

You are most welcome!
I just want to see you as a newer user get the most from this site possible.
The wealth of knowledge shared here is invaluable. But - in order to "catch up", the due diligence of reading some of the threads on any subject that you have questions about - before posting a question - will give you so much more information.
Then - if your question remains un-answered feel free to post away!
And - share your successes and trials with everyone else. It is what keeps us all learning!
