OK, I did a test of my tap water and I got:
ammonia .25 ppm
nitrIte 2.0 ppm
nitrAte 40 ppm
pH 8.0
This is terrible. Is there any chemical or something that would help this? Readings like this make you wonder how much good you're actually doing by doing a PWC. Really, if I did a PWC to lower nitrAtes, the levels in the tank would have to be above 40 ppm or it wouldn't do anything!!!
