I bought this tank off someone that had let it get really bad. So I bought it and got all the algae off it. Then I took out most of the live rock out (only the pieces covered in hair algae) I then got new rock that was aquacultured and put it in so it was about 12 pounds new rock and one 2 pound rock was left. I have hermits and bumblebee snails
Ha long story short nitrates were at about 125 after I put the new rock in. After about 2 days it went to about 90 then I did a couple water changes and cleaned out the sand and stuff put a poly filter in it and got it down to 40. It's been steady at 40 for about a week now.
What do I do?!?!?
