I have been curing about 40#s of pukani rock I got from brs for about 3 1/2 weeks and I just tested the water for the first time.
Ammonia-0
Nitrites-5
Nitrates-40
Phosphates-.25
Calcium-500
Kh-9
My main question is should I add an ammonia source to the contain, I haven't yet thinking there was enough on the rock already. All these reading were taken with API test kits. I am curing in a separate container because I have read about this type of rock leeching phosphates for a while. Is there anything else I should be doing other than waiting? Thanks any and all advice is appreciated.
