Hi I have been running my new set up for 7 weeks now, I cycled using a shrimp, all my live rock was from my previous set up that was fully cured. my ammonia is stuck at 0.2. Nitrate and nitrite are 0.
I'm using 30kg of LR
1kg ceramic media in sump,
Gyrator 1000 with 500ml of bio pearls( added bit by bit as directed by manufacturer)
Bubble Magnus curb 7,
Total water volume is about 400l
Any ideas why the ammonia won't drop? I have done 2 water changes, 25l each time. Should I be turning the skimmer off and my reactor off for a week or so? Although the skimmer is pulling out some gunk
Cheers
