Has anyone monitored ozone for NR? if so is there any evidence of detrimental residuals?

i find if i use ozone 24/7 the nitrate does increase slightly but not a great lot.derek

strange, i thought any nitrate would get oxidised!

so this next Q.

Will ozone only break down the Ammonia > Nitrite > Nitrate then end!

or will it produce Nitrogen by oxidising nitrate? or is the cycle just repeated?
