How quickly should that stuff work? I was under the impression that it would be rather quickly.
I started my 55 last Sunday with 8 small africans and 3 oz of Bio-Spira.
One week later my ammonia is around 1.0 and no nitrites.
The test kit (ammonia) says that it is a salicylate based test, if that makes any difference.
I have a 10 gal that has no fish in it, but is cycled. The HOB filter won't go on the new tank so I stole it's bio-wheel and dropped it in the 55 gallon. I was also thinking about using the filter/carbon insert (6 months old) if I can figure out a way to put it in so they won't mess with it.
