I was just wondering. I'm cycling my tank right now and am in the phase of high NO2. Can the NO2 be so high that even the bacteria are killed off? My levels are so high that it's off the scale of my test kit.
can I kill my bacteria

Yes, they can, but it will eventually catch up, just be patient.

Also, in connection with that. Does it take longer to cycle a bigger tank?
