I think he is going to have to solve the issue before it goes into the tank. With such a high starting point I think the plants would only neutralize about as much as the fish produce, and thats if your lucky. There's several things you can do that could take care of a few ppm here and a few there but nothing on such a large scale to drop it to <10 especially if your not treating it separately before its added to the tank. The scary thing to me is that if your nitrates are that high right out of the ground whats in the water that's being converted into those nitrates? Is everything being converted before it reaches your mouth? Did you guys check nitrate? When I see what's trapped in my canisters when my tank water reaches 60ppm its crazy. To think that much waste is in your drinking water is down right scary.
