Re: Sam's Tank 105L

sorry meant nitrite (long day) its 0.50 to 2ppm now. it did go to 0 but i don't think it was fully there, its weird as i dropped the liquid it went purple (without shaking) after shaking turned purple started to get light to blue over 5 mins.

Re: Sam's Tank 105L

its been a whole week now and my nitrate readings are sky high, iv added ammonia every day as 24 hrs later it shows 0ppm. should i just be patitient and wait for the nitrate to drop again? is there any way i can significantly speed it up (even a little).

Re: nitrite readings

ok thanks, will have to do water changes until things are low and try stay on top. will reduce feeding too. im considering seachem products now, if i purchase seachem prime how quick can i use that in my tank like do i have to wait for it to dechlorinate?
