Hello,
The prawn has been in the tank for 3.5 days now... should i take it out now or leave it to keep rotting away?
Ok, my results 2 days ago were:
Ph: 7.8
Ammonia: 0.25
Nitrate: 160
Nitrite: 0.25
Salt: 1.022
My results today are:
Ph: 7.8
Ammonia: 0.5
Nitrate: 160
Nitrite: 2.0
Salt: 1.023
Is the cycle going well... i'm a little concerned that the ph is a little low and the nitrate is at the highest value on my scale... Is this normal or do i need to do anything?
One thing i have noticed over the past few days is more and more life coming out of my liverock, some of my liverock also came with algie on it... on one rock this algie has been fine thoughout the cycle process, but on the other it seamed to die off... however its now starting to regrow, this is a good sign, right?
Thanks for the help / advice,
